Idaho governor signs law requiring prenatal development education in public schools

Idaho Governor Brad Little signed a bill into law on Thursday requiring public schools in the state to utilize a prenatal development educational curriculum in their classrooms.

Idaho is the third state to implement a prenatal development curriculum, following North Dakota and Tennessee. Currently, 20 states are considering similar legislation, despite pushback from pro-abortion groups such as SIECUS and Planned Parenthood — with the latter claiming that prenatal development education for teens could “stigmatize” abortion.

According to the law — Human Growth and Development Instruction in Public Schools — the curriculum will “include instruction on human growth and development” to students in grades five through 12, including “showing the development of the brain, heart, sex organs, and other vital organs in early fetal development” using “scientifically accurate materials, such as ultrasound videos and animations.” These videos may include Live Action’s “Baby Olivia” or other similar animations.

The curriculum will be implemented for the 2025-2026 school year and must include either a “high-definition ultrasound video,” and a “high-quality, computer-generated rending or animation” such as “Baby Olivia.”

“Baby Olivia” is a state-of-the-art animation depicting medically accurate information about the life and development of preborn children, showcasing their growth and development milestones from the moment of fertilization through birth. A panel of several doctors approved the groundbreaking video, which was created based on information provided by the Endowment for Human Development (EHD), a “nonprofit organization dedicated to improving health science education and public health” whose videos have been distributed by National Geographic.

Senator Tammy Nichols, lead sponsor of the bill, said:

The signing of Senate Bill 1046 is a vital victory for life, ensuring that Idaho students are educated about the sanctity of life from conception. By teaching students about fetal development and the biological processes that begin at fertilization, this legislation helps instill a profound respect for life, encourages future generations to recognize the value of the unborn, and lays the groundwork for creating a cultural shift that values and protects life at all stages.

Sponsor of the bill, state Rep. Heather Scott, explained that she was inspired to support the law after her niece told her that fetal development models of preborn babies are “not true” because she had learned in school that a baby in the womb is “nothing more than a clump of cells.” After the signing of the bill, Scott said, “I am so proud of Idaho legislators and look forward to fostering a culture of life in our children.”

Live Action founder and president Lila Rose stated in a press release, “This is a significant step toward equipping Idaho’s students with accurate, necessary, and scientifically accurate information regarding human life in the womb… This pivotal movement is only getting started. With North Dakota, Tennessee, and now Idaho leading the way, we urge the remaining 47 states to follow their bold example. Every American student deserves access to the truth about when life begins and how it develops.”

Abortion survives on people lying to themselves about what it means. The “unviable tissue mass” pretense. If these young women see the truth the abortion rate will drop like a rock. The rats know this so they fight to keep the truth buried

Yep. Across the board.

Democrats peddle a LOT of lies. Which explains their love for Barack Hussein Obama, Joe Biden, the homosexual agenda, Planned Parenthood, "transgender", etc......

June 26, 2015 was a DARK and EVIL day when Godless
Abomination was celebrated by the Manchurian Candidate -
this is the kind of Satanic abomination done
before Almighty God that can destroy a nation

They simply WILL NOT be happy until the Entire World is
turned into a Zombie Version of Sodom and Gomorrah.


THEY WILL NOT REPENT. THEY WILL NOT STOP.
THEY DESPISE WHAT THE LORD GOD HATH SAID


There is not anything that is not made worse,
or more weird and bizarre or more confusing
than by the homosexual / transgender agendas


Satan's LGBTQ+ false prophet DEMOCRAT Barack Hussein Obama
has done the work of his true father, that Old Serpent (John 8:44) by
sowing confusion, Godless error, and outright lies

How many attend churches yet ARE STILL deceived by this man?


Godless Reprobate Democrats will ALWAYS protect the
homosexual agenda - it was a prized feature of their
Manchurian Candidate Barack Hussein Obama in 2015


THE AMERICANS DEMOCRATS ARE DETERMINED TO DO SATAN'S WILL

They ARE working for Satan - whether they understand it or not

This is EXACTLY the kind of anti-God confusion that the Enemy likes to sow - since the days of Genesis chapter 19]

[transgender controversy]

The Democrats MUST have a direct line to
that Old Serpent called the Devil and Satan


Satan used false prophet Barack Hussein Obama to sow even more confusion upon the world
- and Obama turned the White House into an homosexual abomination before Almighty God.


Democrat Manchurian Candidate Barack Hussein Obama
is an EXCELLENT false prophet for that Old Serpent, called the Devil and Satan.


And the world just continues to fulfill Bible Prophecy - as expected

All according to Satan's plan.

June 26, 2015 was the Rainbow White House



The Days of Lot are upon the world - just as prophesied

And Sudden Destruction is prophesied for the Days of Lot

Even thus shall it be
in the Day when the
Son of Man is revealed...




(newer version which includes verse 32) - both images posted
for effect

I actually saw a Godless Reprobate Democrat
call an unborn baby as a "Glioblastoma"

This was on Yahoo several yeas ago - how many stupid fools believed this liar from Hell?

When we had Sex Ed in school we were objectively taught about the pregnancy process and how the fetus grows and developes, without it EVER being referred to as a “clump of cells”.
