(TOWNHALL) – A Virginia school board rejected a policy from the state's Education Department that requires administrators to call students by pronouns reflecting their chosen gender identity rather than their biological pronouns.
The Russell County school board unanimously voted Thursday to reject the state's mandatory changes to the transgender policy after residents voiced their opposition to the new guidelines for transgender students.
“We do not hate transgender people. We do not hate homosexual people. We do not judge them," one resident said. "God will judge them. We hate the sin that they live, and that is the problem that we have in the community today, is that [it is] trying to be pushed on all of our children."
