Because #Florida officials are once again spreading misinformation about the #DontSayGay bill, I want to once again lay out what it does and doesn't actually say. (You can see the text and history of the legislation for yourself here: flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2….) First of all, K-3 students are not learning sex ed in Florida schools. They are occasionally learning that some kids have two dads or two moms, though, and that's what's setting off conservative supporters of the bill.
