Laws to Protect LGBTQ Students Fail to Gain Traction on Federal or State Levels

“If a gay child is relentlessly harassed by his classmates, if a principal tells a girl that she can’t go to her senior prom because she wants to bring another girl as her date, or if a school just stands by as teachers, students, and other administrators refer to a transgender child as not he or she but ‘it’—there is no law that was written to protect those children,” Franken said. “Our laws fail those children. And that is just wrong. But we can change that.”
