AI Summary
This bill, titled the "Say No to Indoctrination Act," proposes to amend the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 by prohibiting the use of federal education funds to teach or advance "gender ideology," a term referencing concepts related to gender identity and expression. Specifically, the bill would modify Section 8526 of the existing law by adding a new provision that prevents schools from using federal education funding for any instruction or curriculum that promotes what the bill defines as gender ideology, as outlined in Executive Order 14168. The bill aims to restrict educational institutions from teaching concepts that the sponsors view as diverging from traditional or biological understandings of gender, effectively limiting discussions or educational materials about gender identity in schools. This proposed legislation represents an effort to control curriculum content related to gender and potentially limit discussions about gender identity and expression in the educational context.
