Washington State Gov signed a bill mandating LGBTQ history be taught in public schools.
They are coming for your children.
What does the new law say?
Senate Bill 5642 mandates that the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction integrate "the concepts of diversity, equity, and inclusion" into newly developed or updated learning standards.
In a news release on Monday, March 18, the prime sponsor of the bill, Marko Liias, D-Edmonds, stated, "The contributions of gay Washingtonians deserve recognition, and just as importantly, students deserve to see themselves in their schoolwork."
"That leads to better attendance, better academic achievement, and better overall quality of life, ensuring success for all our students," he added.
The Washington State School Directors' Association and OSPI are mandated to develop a model policy by June 2025.
As part of this model, school boards must adopt educational materials that are age-appropriate and recognize the accomplishments and histories of LGBTQ individuals.
