De-Criminalisation

    1 1 Section 1. Section 280.28, subsection 2, paragraph c, Code
    1 2 2009, is amended to read as follows:  
    1 10 This bill strikes sexual orientation and gender identity
    1 11 from the definition of the term "trait or characteristic of the
    1 12 student" used for purposes of protecting students in public and
    1 13 nonpublic schools from harassment and bullying.
Yes, they genuinely do want to de-criminalise the harrassment and bullying of Trans, Intersexed, and GLB kids in schools. To remove existing protections from a 2007 law.
