Supporters argued the legislation would empower parents to choose how their children are raised.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/georgia-parental-rights-bill-would-bar-teachers-discussing-gender-identity-students\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>GEORGIA PARENTAL RIGHTS BILL WOULD BAR TEACHERS FROM DISCUSSING GENDER IDENTITY WITH STUDENTS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>If a student questions their gender identity to a teacher, &#8220;the best answer is, you can talk to your parents,&#8221; said Micah Clark, executive director of the Indiana Family Association.<\/p>\n<p>The parental notification proposal was among several amendments to a bill that started out more closely resembling <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/us\/us-regions\/southeast\/florida\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Florida legislation<\/a> enacted in March 2022. The so-called &#8220;Don&#8217;t Say Gay&#8221; bill drew intense national scrutiny from those who argue it marginalizes LGBTQ people. Proponents say the measure is reasonable because parents, not teachers, should handle such subjects with their children.<\/p>\n<p>The original Indiana bill would have prohibited teachers from teaching kindergarteners to third graders about topics related to gender identity and sexuality. It was amended limit the banned topics solely to sexual education \u2014 something already uncommon in early grades.<\/p>\n<p>Missouri lawmakers also rejected a more restrictive version of the &#8220;Don\u2019t Say Gay&#8221; law. A Senate committee in that state voted to advance a measure that would require public school teachers to tell parents if a child &#8220;express discomfort or confusion&#8221; about their gender identity or if they request to use different pronouns.<\/p>\n<p>Haras Shirley, a transgender man who testified Monday, said the House legislation is &#8220;a direct conflict of interest to what I\u2019m sworn to do&#8221; for students as a school resource officer at an Indianapolis high school.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I will continue to be a beacon for my students, no matter the cost,&#8221; Shirley said.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/california-school-district-accused-secretly-counseling-child-transition-gender-parents-wrath\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>CALIFORNIA SCHOOL DISTRICT ACCUSED OF SECRETLY COUNSELING CHILD TO TRANSITION GENDER FACES PARENTS&#8217; WRATH<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/politics\/state-and-local\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Indiana&#8217;s House bill<\/a>, authored by Republican Rep.
