The proposed rule change requires approval by the state Board of Education rather than the legislature, and non-compliant instructors could face suspension or revocation of their certification, among other penalties. Exceptions would exist where such instruction is required by state academic standards or as part of an opt-out reproductive health course. <\/p>\n<p>The original act was panned as &#8220;anti-gay,&#8221; and critics have argued that the language in the proposed amendment is too broad and subject to interpretation. Last year, the debate over the original act centered on the rights of parents in their children&#8217;s classroom education, outlining numerous parental rights that included the right to sue for infractions. DeSantis has, however, positioned himself as a champion of parents&#8217; rights, a move that has helped him secure footing in the Republican Party as a possible 2024 contender. <\/p>\n<div class=\"Enhancement\">\n<div class=\"Enhancement-item\">\n<figure class=\"Figure mb-1 mb-sm-3 mb-md-1 article-lead-photo data_invisible\" data-align=\"center\" data-image-size=\"fixed\" itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\">\n<div class=\"Figure-container\"> <picture><source media=\"(max-width: 768px)\" type=\"image\/webp\" width=\"767\" height=\"552\" data-image-size=\"1060x600_md\"><source media=\"(max-width: 768px)\" width=\"767\" height=\"552\" data-image-size=\"1060x600_md\"><source media=\"(max-width: 1440px)\" type=\"image\/webp\" width=\"645\" height=\"464\" data-image-size=\"1060x600_xl\"><source media=\"(max-width: 1440px)\" width=\"645\" height=\"464\" data-image-size=\"1060x600_xl\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" width=\"1060\" height=\"763\" data-image-size=\"1060x600\"><source width=\"1060\" height=\"763\" data-image-size=\"1060x600\"><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/source><\/picture><figcaption class=\"Figure-caption\" itemprop=\"caption\">                 Florida Gov.
