Prohibits public higher education institutions from providing instruction that promotes gender pronouns inconsistent with biological sex, so less recognition and use of transgender pronouns in education.
An institution of higher education may not provide instruction that promotes the use of a gender pronoun inconsistent with a person's biological sex.
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill adds a prohibition in the Education Code on higher education institutions providing instruction promoting gender pronouns that do not match biological sex, which restricts legal recognition and use of transgender gender identity in educational settings.
