Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) has instructed schools in his state to ignore President Joe Biden’s new federal guidelines on inserting gender ideology into school curricula and counseling.
Florida public schools are already forbidden by state law from indoctrinating young children with transgender ideology or attempting to transition children behind their parents’ backs. But DeSantis’s education commissioner, Manny Diaz, has further made clear that schools should not feel pressure from these federal guidelines to treat boys as if they were girls or vice versa when it comes to school sports, bathrooms, or locker rooms.
