EXECUTIVE ORR ON ADVANCG EQUALY FOR LBIAN, GAY, BISEXUAL, TRANSGENR, QUEER, AND INTERSEX INDIVIDUALS

As Florida’s Parental Rights Edutn law — or what crics have dubbed the “Don’t Say Gay” law — go to effect Friday, some of the state’s public school districts have begun rollg out new polici to lim LGBTQ issu and inti om beg discsed the Tuday night, the Leon County School Board unanimoly approved s “LGBTQ Inclive School Gui, ” which clus a provisn to alert parents if a stunt who is “open about their genr inty” is their child’s physil tn class or wh them on an overnight school trip. They have also ntend that will not prohib teachers and stunts om talkg about their LGBTQ fai or bar classroom discsns about LGBTQ history, cludg events like the 2016 attack at the Pulse gay nightclub crics and legal experts have said the broad language of the law uld open school districts and teachers to lawsus om parents who believe any nversatn about LGBTQ people or issu is “not age appropriate. Chandan Khanna / AFP via Getty Imag fileFive other stat — all of them the South — have enacted laws that lim stctn or discsns about LGBTQ people or issu school, and at least 32 others have proposed such measur this year, acrdg to acrdg to the Movement Advancement Project, an LGBTQ thk tank that has been trackg the strsed that the polici will have nsequenc for lbian, gay, bisexual, transgenr and queer stunts, potg to the disproportnately high rat of suici attempts among the untry’s LGBTQ youths.

In particular, this Part reviews and rejects four terts that state legislatur have historilly voked to jtify anti-gay curriculum laws: (1) promotg moral disapproval of homosexual nduct, (2) promotg children’s heterosexual velopment, (3) preventg sexually transmted fectns, and (4) regnizg that stat have broad thory to prcribe the curriculum of public schools.

Named after Aled Ksey’s timate that ten percent of the populatn is “exclively homosexual, ” the program was nceived as “an -school unselg program providg emotnal support, rmatn, rourc, and referrals to young people who intified themselv as lbian, gay or bisexual” and an attempt “to heighten the school muny’s acceptance of and sensivy to gay, lbian, and bisexual issu.

This anomaly often prompts two skeptil but stctive qutns about the enforcement of anti-gay curriculum laws: (1) whether officials still have the legal thory to enforce the laws, even though they often refer to sodomy and marriage laws that have already been clared unnstutnal; and (2) whether officials still have the polil will to enforce the laws, even after the legalizatn of same-sex timacy and same-sex marriag. — To beg this analysis, this sectn surveys the available evince om the twenty stat that currently have anti-gay curriculum laws to terme whether: (1) the state’s tn regulatns clu anti-gay language; (2) the state’s curriculum guil clu anti-gay language; and (3) the state’s curriculum guil exclu or mean LGBT inti by failg to clu any nonrogatory referenc to sexual orientatn, genr inty, or same-sex relatnships.
