Arizona lawmakers have advanced a parental rights bill that would instruct the state Department of Education to create a list of books banned for sexually explicit LGBTQ+ content.
Gov. Ron DeSantis gave a video presentation to counter the mainstream media's narrative on what he called the "book ban hoax" happening in Florida on Wednesday.on Monday passed legislation that would require education officials to create a list of books with sexually explicit content that cannot be used in school.
Such legislation is part of a broader effort by conservative lawmakers nationwide to remove books with sexually explicit content from schools. Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds is supporting similar legislation that would remove books from school libraries in all the state's 327 districts if parents launched a successful challenge in any one of them. And Florida Gov.
State Sen. Christine Marsh, D-Phoenix, a former teacher, told KAWC-FM,"there's no room for banning books in the classroom simply because it upsets one group of people at the expense of so many others." She added,"those will be the books the kids want to read." Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis held a press conference earlier this month in which he showed sexually explicit material from books that are readily available in some of Florida’s public school libraries."I find it very disturbing that my counterparts on the other side of the aisle continue to make excuses after excuses, as does the public, for these books that are found in our children's schools,'' she told KAWC.
