Students from Jay Gram Brown School in Louisville walked out of class today in protest of Senate Bill 150.
The students walk to a nearby Peace Park where they rallied against the bill, and others, they say, targets trans youth.
State Senator and Republican Lieutenant Governor candidate Max Wise, sponsor of Senate Bill 150, says the bill will give parents more rights and transparency in school policies such as student preferred pronoun use and lesson plans on human sexuality.
But students protesting today said they see the bill as an attack on the LGBTQ community, and they said they fear the bill will cause emotional harm.
It's just like I really care about our community.
Brown School has been so supportive throughout me, finding out about my sexuality, and I just worry so much for my friends and my classmates and how this could impact them.
I think this bill puts so many people in so much danger and it just terrifies me.
And I hope I never have to see that.
And I'm not out to a ton of my teachers or peers here at Brown.
I know I find a lot of comfort and knowing that I have that experience and I have that safe space to go to and it's incredibly angering to see the majority of senators in Frankfurt and representatives in Frankfurt take so much of a stance, pushing hate in our schools and trying to push policy that really has no benefit to them and has no benefit here.
And JCP has.
Senate Bill 150 passed the full Senate last week.
It's now waiting to be assigned to a committee in the House.
