Many California parents are seeking some way to block implementation of the provisions of SB-777, recently signed into law by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger. They say the new statute would impose a radical sexual agenda on California’s public schoolchildren.
The law bans school texts and activities that would exhibit any bias against homosexuality, bisexuality, transsexuality, and cross-dressing, according to Meredith Turney, legislative liaison for the Capitol Resource Institute, a pro-family lobbying organization based in Sacramento.
“Under this latest advance toward a Brave New World of polymorphous perversion, California textbooks will no longer be able to use words like 'mother and father' and 'husband and wife,' because they suggest that heterosexuality is the norm,” said Alan Carlson of the World Congress of Families. “Unbelievably, the law even allows students to use the restrooms and locker rooms of the opposite sex if they identify with that gender,” Carlson told Christian Newswire.
But what can concerned parents do?
