Florida Republicans have introduced three bills to expand upon the state's "Don't Say Gay" law, which restricts classroom instruction on sexual orientation or gender identity in kindergarten through third grade. The bills, H.B. 1223, H.B. 1069, and H.B. 1320, all take aim at different aspects of gender and sexuality education in public schools. The bills have been met with criticism from LGBTQ advocacy groups, while supporters argue that they are necessary to protect the rights of parents. The bills are currently being considered by the Florida Legislature and are expected to be voted on during the 2023 session.
