NDSU holds a protest of a bill banning grant money for sex education
THE AMENDED BILL WOULD PROHIBIT FUNDING FEDERAL GRANT MONEY TO PLANNED PARENTHOOD FOR SEX EDUCATION IN THE STATE.
April 22, 2021 George Gonzales
FARGO, N.D. (KVRR) — Students and faculty at NDSU petition the Legislature not to pass a North Dakota senate bill that would prohibit funding federal grant money to Planned Parenthood for sex education in the state.
“The language of this legislation is written so broadly that it would likely impact faculty across a wide range of disciplines,” North Dakota State Board of Higher Education Faculty Representative, Dr. Liz Legerski said.
North Dakota Senate Bill 2030 provides funding to the State Board of Higher Education to help advance academics, but a newly amended part of that bill is threatening research and sex education courses.
Some lawmakers claim it could result in classes that promote abortion.
