Texas Parents Should Know Their Rights on Sex Education

From Austin ISD to the Texas State Board of Education, Leftists across Texas are promoting radical sex education curriculum in schools that seek to indoctrinate children with a pro-LGBT and pro-abortion agenda. It’s important for Texans to remember that children belong first to their parents and families, not to their government. The primary responsibility and authority over a child's education are their parents, and this is reinforced in state law.

This principal was reaffirmed overwhelming by Texas Republican voters last Tuesday where over 90% supported Proposition 6 affirming the right of parents to control their children’s healthcare decisions, including sex education. We are committed to helping equip Texas parents with their rights as it relates to sex education, including that state law does not require schools to teach sex education and that parents have the right to review all curriculum materials and opt their child out of all sex education lessons.

Texas Values Action endorsed pro-family conservatives Carrie Isaac in HD 45, Jon Francis in HD 60, and Jennifer Fleck in HD 47 are all headed to the May 26 primary runoff. In addition, Texas Values Action endorsed State Board of Education candidate Lani Popp is headed to a runoff in District 5.
