California Attorney General Rob Bonta has joined a coalition of 16 attorneys general from blue states to oppose Florida’s so-called don’t say gay law that bans classroom instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity in kindergarten through third grade.
The group filed an amicus—or friend-of-the-court—brief on Aug. 3 in a lawsuit against the Florida Board of Education, claiming the law “seeks to erase the existence of LGBTQ+ communities from classrooms in the state by censoring or outright prohibiting discussion of sexual orientation and gender identity.”
