The ACLU of Indiana has testified in opposition to SB 128 which would mandate that school boards approve any instruction and learning materials used to teach “human sexuality” for grades 4-12.
This is part of ACLU of Indiana Executive Director Chris Daley’s statement: “If SB 128 becomes law, we’ll see classroom instruction on ‘human sexuality’ plagued by inappropriate interference by school board members and small groups of parents who object to settled facts about human sexuality.
We know from recent years that this ultimately means LGBTQ students are going to be exposed to instruction on human sexuality that ignores or condemns their identities.
All students deserve a high quality and inclusive education that isn’t censored by school board members’ personal or political concerns.”

Yes…a boy is a boy and a girl is a girl – and you can’t change that!
“settled facts”
Settled facts are exactly what the parents are pushing. There are only two sexes, everything else is imaginary. Settled facts are exactly the opposite of what the ACLU is protecting.
The school board is ultimately responsible for the content anyway, so getting them to directly approve the material seems logical.
