Florida’s commissioner of education is telling school districts to ignore the updated federal non-discrimination policy that includes protections for LGBTQ+ students.
The change led Florida Education Commissioner Manny Diaz to send, informing them to ignore the federal guidance and that displaying the posters or change their policies to allow transgender women to use women’s locker rooms, restrooms or female rooms on school field trips could conflict with state law.
Parker said the Department of Education’s position sends the message transgender students aren’t equal. “I will not allow Gov. DeSantis or anyone to deny food to hungry kids for any reason, but especially not because they want to reserve the right to discriminate against them,” said Fried.
