Where did this post come from? The Governor has said he WOULD VETO Senate Bill 1437, a bill to introduce kindergarteners, first and second graders in the public schools to the glories of the homosexual lifestyle. None the less, even if not a Californian, all who oppose this loathsome legislation are urged to support Gov. S. in VETOING this bill by phoning your opinion to 916-445-2841.
Thanks for supplying the number.
I just called (a few times) ~ be sure to select #2 (OPPOSE this bill) ~ the wording is confusing and I accidentally punched #1 the first time.
I hope others don't make my mistake.
Bill Summaries by CCF [Campaign for Children and Families]
AB 606 would authorize the California Superintendent of Public Instruction to arbitrarily withhold state funds (around 2/3rds of a school districts budget) from any district that does not adequately promote transsexuality, bisexuality, or homosexuality in its school policies. AB 606 repeals the current state law prohibiting transsexual, bisexual, and homosexual curriculum from being forced upon local schools, and authorizes the state Superintendent to develop new curriculum that affirms transsexuality, bisexuality, and homosexuality in all its forms.
AB 1056 spends $250,000 in taxpayer dollars to promote transsexual, bisexual, and homosexual lifestyles under the banner of tolerance education in 10 school districts, thus creating a model pilot program for the rest of the state.
SB 1437 expressly prohibits textbooks, instructional materials, and school-sponsored activities from reflecting adversely on transsexuality, bisexuality, or homosexuality. Instructional materials could no longer talk about married husband and wife without also talking about "gay marriages." Sex education assemblies would have to include information on sex changes (to avoid reflecting adversely).
This trio of sexual indoctrination bills, combined with the hammer of the California Department of Education, would greatly interrupt schools' educational priorities which obviously should be reading, writing, and computing. Clearly, SB 1437, AB 606 and AB 1056 would make California schools trans-bi-homosexual indoctrination centers!
The Legislation (link to bills pending):
AB 606 - Establishes the Safe Place to Learn ActAB 1056 - Establishes the Tolerance Education Pilot Program
SB 1437 - Prohibition of discriminatory instruction and instructional materials.
