MEMORANDUM ON SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL LEARNING (SEL): AN EXAMINATION UNDER FLORIDA LAW
Parents of children in Florida public schools have encountered SEL curriculum that contradicts their religious or moral beliefs, exposing students to topics like sexual orientation, gender identity, and critical race theory without clear parental consent, violating Florida law. The Collaborative for Academic Social and Emotional Learning (CASEL), which promotes SEL as a tool for equity, significantly influences state SEL providers. This approach encourages teaching about oppression and politicized identity categories, aiming to create justice-oriented citizens.
On April 19, 2024, the Biden administration usurped the United States Congress by expanding the plain meaning of “on the basis of sex” discrimination to implicate sexual orientation and gender identity. A final version of this rule was published in the Federal Register on April 29, 2024 and may be viewed here. As Citizens Defending Freedom continues to push back against the abuse of the separation of powers and federal law, we encourage you to consult the Title IX Toolkit to stay up-to-date with what CDF is doing to restore the constitutional norms based on the separation of powers and principles of federalism enshrined in our constitutional republic.
AMERICAN LIBRARY ASSOCIATION/FLORIDA LIBRARY ASSOCIATION (ALA/FLA) REMOVAL SCRIPT-FLORIDA
The American Library Association (ALA) faces criticism for promoting progressive values, including the election of Emily Drabinski, a "Marxist lesbian," and advocating for sexually explicit children's books. This agenda, supported by significant funding, influences state chapters like the Florida Library Association (FLA), leading concerned citizens to call for disaffiliation to protect children's education.
CHURCH ACTION STEPS FOR ENGAGEMENT
Pastors are responsible for preparing their congregants for acts of service, which extends to expressing their faith and moral values in the electoral process. Pastors are completely safeguarded when it comes to activities such as educating their church members about the political process, distributing non-partisan voter guides and flyers for members to review candidate’s positions, and facilitating opportunities for members to register to vote.
