Ohio governor signs bill requiring schools to notify parents of ‘sexuality content’

Ohio Governor Mike DeWine signed a bill that requires schools to notify parents about lessons involving 'sexuality content.'
The legislation allows parents to opt out of health care changes or lessons on sex, sexuality, or gender identity.
Opponents argue the bill could force schools to 'out' LGBTQ+ students by revealing private health care discussions.
DeWine stated he does not believe the bill harms LGBTQ+ students, and it will take effect in 90 days.
