“And the solution is not to micromanage professional educators to the point that they are under constant surveillance and constant pressure.”
Thank you, @myteachingcoach for this important conversation!

“But instead of addressing the real issues impacting our schools, the legislature expended its time and energy on this stitched-together bill, taking aim directly at LGBTQIA+ people.”
Thank you, @KyDeptofEd!

The children are paying attention, @SenWheeler31. Are you? These bills will cause harm that will reverberate throughout the community. We want to live our authentic lives without fear. The children want the same.

Um, OK, so House Bill 470 is labeled as an act related to the "protection of children" and here is a screenshot of everything it does.

[CECLGBTQ+Caucus @CECLGBTQCaucus]

6/6: The threat to @KYEducators and the children they serve is unacceptable. As members of @KyCECMembership, @CECMembership, and @CEC_TED_DC we hope you will join us next week to make our voices, and those of our students heard. Visit our booth next week for how to help.

[CECLGBTQ+Caucus @CECLGBTQCaucus]

As part of our on going series highlighting LGBTQ+ issues in #kentucky ahead of @CECMembership in #Louisville we need to address #KYHouseBill470:

1/6:

#DoNoHarm

[CECLGBTQ+Caucus @CECLGBTQCaucus]

5/6: With #HB47, Kentucky is attempting to create the infamous “Do No Harm Act”. This is an egregious violation of rights & needs to be stopped. Please call 800-372-7181 & tell your legislators you won’t stand for this injustice. #StopHB470

LONG THREAD, PLEASE READ.
Members of our group joined @FairnessCamp and other orgs in the state on 2/15 to lobby against anti-LGBTQ+ leg being pushed by #KYGOP. We were able to arrange meeting with Sen. Wheeler (our senator representing Pike county) to discuss SB 150.

Looking forward to hearing the panel at @CEC_TED_DC next month!

[CECLGBTQ+Caucus @CECLGBTQCaucus]

@B_CichyParker and @Bnbrew sat down yesterday for a conversation about intersectionality, equality, and LGBTQ+ students and teachers. Thanks to @CEC_TED_DC for working to #getitright
