[Eric Swalwell for Congress]( {NAME} — 🚨Florida Republicans are once again attacking the LGBTQ+ Community.🚨 Their new bill will prohibit public school teachers from referring to a student by their pronouns if they do not correspond to that person's sex. We’re calling this bill "Don't Say They." Needless to say, it is a disgusting example of GOP bigotry on full display and another senseless attack on transgender and gender-nonconforming youth. House Bill 1223 is a continuation of the Parental Rights in Education bill, or the "Don't Say Gay" bill, that was passed in 2022. “Don’t Say Gay” prohibited teaching and discussions of gender identity and sexuality in grades K-3. This bill is even more extreme, raising that limit to 8th grade. Students in the LGBTQIA+ community are already at increased risk of bullying, physical assault, and homelessness. The potential for harm here cannot be overstated, team. We must stop this bill in its tracks and put an end to this disturbing trend of anti-LGBTQ+ bills.

From banning books to critical race theory, conservatives are undermining American education at every turn. Enough is enough.
