California Bill Mandates Pro-Gay Teaching in Public Ed.

The California Legislature is considering a bill that would require public schools to teach homosexuality or lose their funding.

If passed, Assembly Bill 606 could cost schools that don't comply as much as two-thirds of their budgets. The legislation has been approved by the state Assembly, and is set for two more Senate committee hearings before a floor fight.

"Practically it means the posters on the wall must be in every grade, K-12, about gay rights and sexual orientation," said Barbara McPherson, program manager for legislative affairs at the California Family Council. "We will have to have trainings on anti-harassment for faculty, school boards and very possibly to students."

The bill goes as far as to give sole power to the California superintendent of public instruction to oversee school cooperation.

"There's no due process—you can see that it could be used for retribution and retaliation," McPherson explained. "It's very, very dangerous."

Family advocates say the legislation is a tool to indoctrinate children about homosexuality—and that it must be opposed.
