My name is Lucy. I'm calling from Delaware. Lucy hi. I just wanted to call. I recently got into a conversation with my family because I went to Florida and we started talking about stuff. and sorry I'm a little nervous. you're all good. but I was talking to them and they were talking to me about the don't say the gay bill in the recent expansion and stuff. because for me it's kind of a personal issue. but for them, it's not as much. so they're not really thinking about that kind of stuff. but there is a lot of you know ambiguity in the bill itself. but I do think that maybe people should probably start listing the names of these bills and stuff. like where they're from the house or the Senate. what number the bill is and what standards it refers to in their reporting. because I'm looking at the bill now and it really feels like a lot of times when these things get reported on you know the text of the bill doesn't get really talked about but the text of the bill itself is actually pretty damning. you know in section three of the bill itself it says you know classroom instruction by Personnel. We've heard it a bunch. but in the end it specifically refers to accordance with State Standards. so I went ahead and looked up the state standards that it's actually referring to. and it refers specifically to section 1000.4 1003.46 which is health education instruction and acquired immune deficiency syndrome. and part two says throughout instruction and acquired immune deficiency syndrome sexually transmitted diseases or health and education when such an instruction or course material contains instruction in human sexuality a school shall teach abstinence from sexual education outside of marriage is the expected standard for all School age students while also teaching the benefits of monogamous homosexual heterosexual marriage. So you know a lot of times I think referring to these bills specifically as their numbers and stuff and making it really easy for people to look up what the bill itself says and what the stuff it's referring to says to make it really easy for people to understand just how ridiculous A lot of these laws are. yeah yeah. I mean I think that's helpful. and just like laying it out in clear terms. I also just want to re-highlight what I did in what I highlighted in headlines today, which is that it broke around an hour before the show started so I need to do more reading. but like they're coming into the court system too. this federal judge in Texas blocked the ACA mandate that health insurance companies have to cover preventative care specifically targeting prep. which is the prophylactic HIV drug for gay men mostly and others as well. but often like the reasoning in the legend in what the plaintiffs were pushing was explicitly homophobic. like there that that ruling from a federal judge is immediately law right now because he's a federal judge. and then any appeal process has to go through the fifth circuit which is incredibly right wing and then has to go to the Supreme Court. They are coming after gay non-binary trans LGBTQ people in every direction. every fast and imaginable and the group that's funding that chats that legal challenge to the ACA is headed by Stephen Miller.
