House Republicans have passed legislation to press a midterm campaign promise to give parents greater say in what is taught in public schools.

Duval County Public Schools must give a report Wednesday to the Florida Department of Education on how it is complying with Florida’s “Parents Bill of Rights."

Following the passage of the statewide law nicknamed the “Parents Bill of Rights,” Duval County Public Schools’ Policy Handbook Review Committee discussed its version of the measure.

The “Parents Bill of Rights” legislation passed by a Senate committee Monday lists a wide range of rights parents have over their children. “The bill is covering rights the parents already have, which is why it's unnecessary, except for the additional language,” said Lakey Love with the Florida National Organization for Women. But LGBTQ groups protested the bill ahead of the hearing, arguing its language is overly broad. They also fear it would make it easier for parents to object to nearly anything taught in schools. “Things like civil rights or LGBTQ rights or anything like even history on the Holocaust,” Maurer said.
