John,
Our mission at #VOTEPROCHOICE has always been to ensure that all people in America have full, unrestricted legal access to reproductive freedom and healthcare services that are safe, accessible, affordable, and respectful.
Our work won’t be done until every person is free to decide if, when, and with whom to grow a family in safe, sustainable communities.
For the past 50 years, anti-choice attacks have escalated across the country, even in school boards, and as QAnon followers are running for school boards to control the education of our children, we knew we had to reach out.
So we asked you: do you support science-based sex education in schools? And here's what a handful of you had to say:
We agree with Carla B. and Stefan T.:
"Any individual must be allowed control over their own body."
"Anything other than science-based sex education is counter-productive."
Susan K. knows why sex education is so critical:
"Get them the correct information ASAP. The more educated people are the more likely they will make wiser choices."
Roosha N. and Francene S. have the right ideas:
"Information on sex, gender, consent, and acceptance are needed!"
"Knowledge and accurate, sensitive presentation of age-appropriate facts would make a much-needed foundation for personal growth in confidence and a beginning of maturity."
Christina G., Ann-Louise T., and Fred D. — we couldn't have said it better ourselves:
"Science-based age-appropriate sex ed saves lives. Our kids should be informed about how their bodies work. We owe it to them to inform them."
"Sex education is key to protecting our children from abuse, sexually transmitted diseases, and unwanted pregnancies. Protecting our children in every way we can is so very important."
"Truth and fact are tools the students can use to determine the planning of their future families, and schools are the institutions that will assist parents with their children's sex education positively and confidently."
And finally, Stacey R. thank you for the kind message, we're so thankful to have you with us in our fight:
"Thank you so much for everything you do. Reproductive rights are such a critical issue and it is imperative that we are on the correct side. Very best of luck."
