A Florida lawmaker thinks the so-called 'Don't Say Gay' bill doesn't go far enough — and is pitching a major expansion

• A Florida GOP state representative filed a proposal expanding the state's so-called "Don't Say Gay" bill.
• The bill, HB 1223, would prohibit instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity up to eighth grade.
• Advocacy groups slammed the proposal, saying it polices schools and demonizes LGBTQ people.

Florida lawmakers will consider a major expansion to the state's controversial gender and education law — which critics have dubbed "Don't Say Gay" — that would target transgender and nonbinary students and ban schools from teaching about gender identity until high school.
