Florida passes education bill with pronoun restrictions and book objections addressed.

Florida lawmakers have passed a controversial education bill that expands a ban on school lessons about sexual identity and gender orientation, requires schools to remove challenged books within five days, and restricts how teachers and students can use pronouns in schools. Critics argue that the bill is a form of censorship and "book banning" that will further marginalize LGBTQ students and lead to increased bullying and suicide. Supporters argue that the bill is necessary to ensure that parents, not teachers, are responsible for teaching their children about adult topics like sexual orientation and gender identity.
