The White House specifically referred to the legislation as “Don’t Say Gay”: Instead of making growing up harder for young people, is focused on keeping schools open and supporting students' mental health. Today, conservative politicians in Florida advanced legislation designed to attack LGBTQI+ kids.
On Tuesday, the White House claimed: “Today, conservative politicians in Florida advanced legislation designed to attack LGBTQI+ kids.” (The “I,” a new Biden-era addition to the acronym, stands for “ intersex,” and refers to those who are born with biological characteristics that are not typically male or female.) The Biden White House has attacked a Florida bill restricting the teaching of sexuality among young children that Democrats are referring to as “Don’t Say Gay,” but the bill does not refer to “gay” and only applies from kindergarten through third grade. The legislation does not mention any particular sexuality and applies to teaching in “primary grades.”
