SACRAMENTO, Calif.—Opponents of Assembly Bill 329 (AB-329) voiced their stance at the California Capitol on March 28. Senators, community leaders, and concerned parents alike from all over the state joined together to make a stance against what they described as sexual indoctrination.

AB-329 is described as “comprehensive sexual health education and HIV prevention education,” according to the California Department of Education. It mandates sexual education for students from grades seven to 12. The bill was enacted on Jan. 1, 2016.
