Meat and Potatoes of the bill:

Senate Bill 99 struck out grade six, changing it to kindergarten, in addition to making a few other changes in wording. It read:

*Each class or course in comprehensive sex education in any of grades K through 12 shall include instruction on the prevention of sexually transmitted infections, including the prevention, transmission and spread of HIV.

The bill’s third purpose was to remove value-laden language in the old law. For example, the old law contained passages like this:

*Course material and instruction shall teach honor and respect for monogamous heterosexual marriage.

*Course material and instruction shall stress that pupils should abstain from sexual intercourse until they are ready for marriage…

*[Classes] shall emphasize that abstinence is the expected norm in that abstinence from sexual intercourse is the only protection that is 100 percent effective against unwanted teenage pregnancy [and] sexually transmitted diseases…

The proposed bill eliminated all those passages and replaced them with wording like this:

*Course material and instruction shall include a discussion of sexual abstinence as a method to prevent unintended pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections, including HIV.

*Course material and instruction shall present the latest medically factual information regarding both the possible side effects and health benefits of all forms of contraception, including the success and failure rates for the prevention of pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections, including HIV…

Obama and his cronies in Planned Parenthood completely removed the concept of marriage from the bill, lowered the age of discussion of AIDS to kindergarten, and increased emphasis on birth control.

Abortion is an Industry. The more pregnant kids, the better for Planned Parenthood.

I could not find any recorded vote on the bill; I do note, however, that an amendment changing “K” to “6” was included...
