❌ HB485
Enact the Baby Olivia Act
Current Status: Introduced In Senate
Summary
The Baby Olivia Act mandates the inclusion of human growth and development instruction in health education for grades three through twelve in public schools. The curriculum must include specific materials such as ultrasound videos and educational videos on human development. Schools must comply with audits conducted by the Department of Education to ensure adherence to these requirements.
Rationale
The bill imposes government-mandated educational content, which conflicts with the Libertarian principles of parental rights and educational freedom. It restricts the ability of parents to choose educational content for their children, thereby undermining individual rights and parental authority.
Risks and Concerns
- Increased government control over educational content
- Potential infringement on parental rights
- Limited educational choices for families
