The RI GOP Conservative Caucus issued the statement on Friday.
The Rhode Island Republican Conservative Caucus is opposing legislation introduced at the Rhode Island General Assembly that would require courses in family life or sex education be taught in grades 6 -12 and be appropriate for students of all races, genders, sexual orientations, ethnic and cultural backgrounds.
“Instituting this course material will prompt young students to believe that all these variations are equal in their social order," said Barbara Holmes-Brackett, Chair of the RI Republican Conservative Caucus. “Many parents will be furious that this message is being beamed at their children, but the Legislature seems to have seen to it that by the time parents are aware it will be too late."
