    I monitor some right-wing pages on FB and keep hearing something about a so-called “Parents Bill of Rights” (Hb 1296) that
    according to them is being repealed or at least watered down, which sounds good to me because it’s got some bizarre stuff about parents being able to demand curriculum reviews and keep their kids from learning things they don’t approve of.

    Not to mention forcing schools to out kids who aren’t out to their parents

    Edit: I was seeing it described as an initiative that passed last year but I know it wasn’t on the ballot or I’d have remembered. Apparently the legislature took it up themselves? I don’t know why they’d do that unless maybe they figured it’d be easier to amend later and they didn’t want to risk putting it through the normal initiative process? Which, to be fair, the people of this state have voted for some pretty terrible initiatives in the past.

    The leg passed three of the 6 without sending them to voters. As I understand it this was to make them easier to amend, and to take some support away from the other 3.

    Yeah, that makes sense
