Senate Bill 1437 was passed from the Senate Judiciary Committee on April 5, 2006. The bill bans discrimination in school textbooks based upon sexual orientation. Further, it encourages the inclusion of LGBT contributions when students learn about contributions of other minorities. The Bill has become very controversial amongst the state’s conservatives and evangelical Christians.
This bill is a good idea. I wrote a paper about it that is now available online. Click here for the paper. Enjoy!
