Greetings GLSENeer,
We are reaching out to you today for an important action. The Arizona Legislature is voting on a bill that could be weaponized against Arizona educators teaching biology, sex education; or those affirming educators whom students seek advice and direction.
GLSEN Arizona is sounding the alarm on HB 2310, a child enticement bill that fails to protect educators while overtly protecting doctors, nurses, and other childhood healthcare workers in the bill text.
LEGISLATIVE SESSION
ARIZONA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES WILL VOTE ON HB 2310
GLSEN Arizona and our allies are calling on the Arizona House of Representatives to reject HB 2310 in its current form or amend it to protect educational staff.
HOW CAN YOU GET INVOLVED?
We urge you to contact both of your Representatives and ask that they oppose HB 2310 as it is right now, or work to amend it to include educational staff. Without enumerated protections for educators (including paraprofessional support staff), HB 2310 risks being weaponized toward affirming staff.
If you have any questions or would like to share your story, please contact me at kelley.dupps@glsenarizona.org and 623-715-6005 (text or Signal).
