CA Hate Group Launches Another Attempt To Repeal Gay Education Bill SB48

Yesterday the office of California's Secretary of State approved another bid to repeal the new LGBT education bill.

SB 48, also known as the Fair, Accurate, Inclusive, and Respectful Education Act, requires that LGBTs’ historical contributions be taught to California’s school students. The proposal, submitted by Lou Sheldon of the anti-gay Traditional Values Coalition, repeals SB 48′s requirement that instructional materials recognize those contributions. Sheldon also wants to undo the law’s provision that prohibits instructional materials that reflect adversely on people based on their sexual orientation and other characteristics. Backers of Sheldon’s initiative have until June 25 to collect the 504,760 valid signatures needed to get the proposal on the state ballot.

Another group headed by failed anti-gay politician Karen England expects to get approval for their own repeal campaign in February.
