Dozens of parents and parental rights advocates displayed signs and banners with slogans such as “No More Secrecy” outside the Chico, California, school district office on March 15 in support of proposed federal legislation that would defund states that allow the secret gender transitioning of school children without parental consent.
On March 14, Rep. Doug LaMalfa (R-Calif.) introduced a bill in the U.S. House known as the Prohibiting Parental Secrecy Policies in Schools Act (H.R. 1585), which would require states receiving funds under Title II of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 to implement a nationwide policy prohibiting secret social transitioning at school.
