I don't think so but it's Florida. I don't live in Florida. The majority in Florida must somehow be OK with this and it's their teachers and children.

Don't take my nuance to mean that I approve of this or think it's a good idea.

Conceptually, if the government defines the teaching, at what point do the people run the government and at what point does the government run the people?

Also, politics in America are way more messy than that. The choice becomes "People you agree 50% with or people you agree 20% with?". I would bet that if this were put to a statewide vote, it would not pass.

The community/voters define the government and the government defines the teaching.

Which entity is more in touch with the wants and needs of Florida voters: Florida's state and local governments or the federal government in Washington?

The hiring of teachers is approved by community elected school boards.

FL laws take that power from communities and puts it in State level hands. Your point is upside-down and tries to paint heavy handed big-government rules as better in fact.

Also who said anything about DC? The point was about letting teachers, parents, and yes, minors; make choices for kids. This is whitewashing extremist beliefs over communities that very well may disagree, exactly what you imply this protects lol.

Why do you think the majority of Floridians are OK with this? Does it matter to American politicians that the majority of Americans are in favor of access to abortions? The noisy people and PACs who donate to campaigns are against it and that's all that matters.

I don't know. I don't live in Florida. If it's not against the law why should I care?

Abortion is legal in my state. ¯ \ _ ( ツ ) _ / ¯
