 Senate Education Committee on Tuesday advanced a bill that would establish review procedures for instructional materials, with a requirement school district superintendents certify to the state Department of Education that all teaching content aligns with state standards.Opponents of the bill say it would empower anti-LGBTQ+ parents to challenge books featuring queer characters and topics in Florida public schools.Members of the public alleged during the committee meeting that books and other material with LGBTQ+ representation will lead to gender confusion and traumatize children.“We need to know what’s going into our kids’ brains,” parent Jennifer Showalter said during the committee meeting.The bill was sponsored by Sen.
