(REASON) -- Ten Republican Georgia state senators have signed onto a new bill that would prohibit the teaching of controversial race and gender subjects in schools. The twist, in this case, is that the senators are specifically targeting private schools, not public schools, and attempting to forcefully control what they're permitted to teach children regardless of parents' wishes.
This is not what it means to support "school choice" and "parents' rights," senators.
The bill, S.B. 613, was introduced Tuesday. Titled the "Common Humanity in Private Education Act," the bill asserts that "a growing number of Georgia's private and nonpublic schools have embraced curricula and programs based in critical theory. … Additionally some teachers and other personnel in private and nonpublic schools and programs have inappropriately discussed gender identity with children who have not yet reached the age of discretion."
