In Committee

Summary

Ban on teaching “gender ideology” with ESEA funds. This bill would amend Section 8526 of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (ESEA) to prohibit using ESEA funds to teach or advance concepts related to gender ideology. The prohibition relies on the definition in Executive Order 14168 and is added as a new paragraph (7) while renumbering the former paragraph (7) to paragraph (8). The change targets curriculum and instruction paid for by ESEA programs when they involve the referenced concepts.

Limits on 'gender ideology' lessons with federal funds

If enacted, public K–12 schools and districts could not use funds under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act to teach or promote "gender ideology."
