St. Charles Representative Cynthia Davis has proposed a bill that would prohibit abortion providers from sponsoring sex education. She says there is a conflict of interest for sponsors like Planned Parenthood providing information and material for sex education classes.
The 11 bills targeted by the activists included legislation sponsored by Rep. Cynthia Davis, R-O'Fallon, that would remove a state requirement that sex education classes include lessons on contraception. Under the bill, schools teaching sex education would not be allowed to hire anyone from an organization that provides abortions, such as Planned Parenthood, to teach the classes.
