gaytimes.co.ukThe US Education Secretary showcased his support for Florida’s LGBTQ+ youth amidst the ongoing ‘Don’t Say Gay’ bill backlash.
On 8 March, the horrific legislation passed in the Republican-led Senate by a vote of 22-17. Under the proposed bill, “classroom discussion about sexual orientation or gender identity” would be restricted in elementary schools.
Over these last few weeks, LGBTQ+ activists and political figures –including President Joe Biden – have condemned the state.
Recently, US Education Secretary Miguel Cardona and Assistant Secretary of Health and Human Services Rachel L. Levine affirmed their support for queer youth during an open forum.
