National Evidence of Accuracy Plot

A bill moving through the Arizona legislature would require state sex education instruction to be “medically accurate.” The irony is that “medically accurate” would be determined by the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention which has consistently fought, even broken the law at times, to cover-up the real truth about the shortcomings of condoms.

 

   Schools that operate sex education programs would have to
provide accurate information about sexually transmitted diseases
under a bill endorsed by the Senate Health Committee Tuesday.
   The bill (SB1157) would require school sex education programs to
provide instruction that is medically accurate based upon
information from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
   Sen. Sue Gerard, R-Phoenix, who sponsored the bill, said it does
not force schools to provide sex education instruction. “But if
you’re going to teach it, you’ve got to be accurate.”
   Health Committee members endorsed it on an 8-0 vote. It now goes
to the Senate Education Committee for consideration.
