California Democrats this week blocked a hearing for a bill that would require schools to inform parents if their children begin using different pronouns, claiming debate over the bill would "provide a forum for increasingly hateful rhetoric."
Assembly Education Committee chair Al Muratsuchi (D.) on Monday confirmed that the committee will not take up Assembly Bill 1314, which would have required teachers and administrators to inform parents within three days if their children asked to be treated as a member of the opposite sex.
"I will not be setting AB 1314 for a hearing, not only because the bill is proposing bad policy, but also because a hearing would potentially provide a forum for increasingly hateful rhetoric targeting LGBTQ youth," the assemblyman said. Without debate, the bill cannot get a vote unless a legislative majority asks for one—a highly improbable event in the Democratic supermajority.
