Ron DeSantis\u2019s desk. For weeks, the left has falsely label the legislation in an apparent attempt to deceive parents and voters, deeming it the \u201cDon\u2019t Say Gay\u201d bill. However, the bill is quite simple in that it bans inappropriate classroom discussions on gender identity and sexual orientation for children in kindergarten through third grade.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the left\u2019s steady stream of misinformation, the measure does not ban specific words or phrases. In fact, it does not even mention the word key to the left\u2019s mantra \u2014 \u201cgay.\u201d<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>\u201cYou actually look at the bill, and it says no sexual instruction in grades pre-k through three. And so how many parents want their kindergarteners to have transgenderism or something injected into classroom instruction?\u201d DeSantis asked during a press conference this month, explaining it is providing assurances for parents.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s basically saying for our youngest students \u2014 4-year-olds, 5-year-olds, 6 years and 7 \u2013 do you really want them to be being taught about \u2014 and this is any sexual stuff, but I think clearly right now we see a lot of focus on the transgenderism, telling kids that they may be able to pick genders and all that,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYeah, you can create a false narrative, you can stage a protest, you can do all those things, but you\u2019re not telling the truth about what\u2019s actually there,\u201d DeSantis added.<\/p>\n<p>Yet, activists and corporate media outlets have continued to perpetuate the lies, even as supposedly \u201cfamily-friendly\u201d companies such as Disney grovels to LGBT activists.<\/p>\n<p>The company\u2019s CEO, Bob Chapek. essentially apologized or not being more outspoken against the Parental Rights in Education Bill and\u00a0<a class=\"x5l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/2022\/03\/08\/1085130633\/disney-response-florida-bill-dont-say-gay\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external\">said<\/a>\u00a0Disney\u2019s leaders \u201cchose not to take a public position on it because we thought we could be more effective working behind-the-scenes, engaging directly with lawmakers \u2014 on both sides of the aisle.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He also said he contacted the governor\u00a0\u201cto express our disappointment and concern that if the legislation becomes law, it could be used to unfairly target gay, lesbian, non-binary and transgender kids and families.\u201d He <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/entertainment\/2022\/03\/12\/disney-ceo-bob-chapek-grovels-to-lgbtq-employees-i-let-you-down-i-am-sorry\/\">groveled<\/a> further, asserting that he needs to be a\u00a0\u00a0\u201cstronger ally\u201d to gay and transgender employees. It remains unclear what that has to do with keeping age-inappropriate discussions out of the classrooms of young children.<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis, in turn, blasted Disney\u2019s hypocrisy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe chance that I am going to back down from my commitment to students and back down from my commitment to parent rights simply because of fraudulent media narratives or pressure from woke corporations \u2014 the chances of that are zero,\u201d he said as a response.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd when you have companies that have made a fortune of being family-friendly and catering to families and young kids, you know, they should understand that parents of young kids do not want this injected into their kid\u2019s kindergarten classroom,\u201d he added, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2022\/03\/11\/ron-desantis-disney-opposes-parental-rights-but-lines-pockets-with-communist-party-of-china-money\/\">blasting<\/a>\u00a0Disney for criticizing parents\u2019 rights but continuing to line its pockets through its relationship with the Communist Party of China (CCP).<\/p>\n<p>Even still, leftists have turned a blind eye to truth, pushing for transgender ideology to be introduced to 5, 6, 7, and 8-year-olds.
