SB 163 by Campbell: Transparency for Parents in Sexual Education

PRO-TAXPAYER POSITION
Support
Senate Journal Page: 1096

SB 163 seeks to repeal the expiration date of August 1, 2024, from the written notice opt-in requirement for students to receive sexual education, essentially making the policy of opting into sexual education permanent, a huge change from the old opt-out policy. When using tax dollars, especially with the latest epidemic of sexual misconduct and indoctrination, it is important parents are provided with transparency about how their children are taught about sexual practices. For this reason, TFR supports SB 163.
