TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – In an interview with Florida’s Voice, Sen. Nick DiCeglie, R-St. Petersburg, urged parents become more involved in their children’s education.
He said a few years ago, parents would “hear about indoctrination of children in our schools.”
“When you first hear that, you think yourself, there’s no way I can’t even get my arms around that. Well, guess what? It was,” DiCeglie said. “It was a real thing.”
In March 2022, Gov. Ron DeSantis signed the Parental Rights in Education Act, falsely dubbed the “Don’t Say Gay” law by some activists, which prohibits classroom instruction on sexual orientation or gender identity in kindergarten.
