This morning we received word that the NV Legislative Commission has pulled the department of education's Gender Diverse Regulation from the agenda tomorrow. The legislators heard your concerns and will hear the regulation at the next commission meeting. It is not going away! IT IS MORE IMPERATIVE THAN EVER THAT WE SHOW UP IN THOUSANDS to back up our concerns with our presence, testimony, and continued emails. They still need to hear from us because it will be up for adoption in the next meeting.
There are REAL PROBLEMS with the PROCESS to which the Gender Diverse regulation AND the Social Studies regulation were crafted. The Nevada Department of Education has circumvented the public/parents/stakeholders for both and with the gender diverse regulation leaned HEAVILY on activist organizations like Gender Justice Nevada. WE MUST TELL THEM THIS TOMORROW!
PARENTS & STAKEHOLDERS ARE INFORMED, INVOLVED AND OUR VOICES ARE POWERFUL-WE WON'T BACK DOWN.
SOCIAL STUDIES REGULATION STILL ON AGENDA: We are being told that in the Social Studies Regulation, topics aren't being removed like the Pledge of Allegiance, certain holidays, important US dates, etc., HOWEVER, Power2Parent has read all 130+ pages and cannot see that they are not so we still have BIG concerns. We need to question them about the details of the regulation: https://bit.ly/2PPuELv.
PLEASE SHARE and call your friends/family, let them know that it's important we show up now more than ever-they are on alert and they know we are!
Southern Nevada Location: 9:00 AM-555 E. Washington Ave. in the Grant Sawyer Building next to Cashman Field
Northern Nevada Location: 9:00 AM-Carson City located at the Legislative Building, Room 4100, 401 South Carson Street.
