HB 1366, the School Violence Prevention Act, would include a reference to sexual orientation and gender identity -- and that set off the fundie alarm over the Homosexual Agenda. The paragraph in question:

"Bullying or harassing behavior includes, but is not limited to, acts reasonably perceived as being motivated by any actual or perceived characteristic, such as race, color, religion, ancestry, national origin, gender, gender identity or expression, physical appearance, sexual orientation, or mental, physical, or sensory disability, or by association with a person who has or is perceived to have one or more of these characteristics."
