legislative record. Let us consider the bill in question, SB0099 of the Illinois General Assembly. I quote:
Each class or course in comprehensive sex education offered in any of grades K_ -6 through 12 shall include instruction on the prevention of sexually transmitted infections, including the prevention, transmission and spread of HIV AIDS. Nothing in this Section prohibits instruction in sanitation, hygiene or traditional courses in biology.
Not only did Obama vote for and therefore support a bill that mandates sex education for all public school children; this bill was amended in order to ensure sex education would be provided to students from grades kindergarten through 6. How else does one explain the strike through the number six and the underscore below the letter âKâ in the text I quote above?
I do not think kindergartners need to be taught this.This is another problem with small town people clinging to their Guns and Faith.
