Parents' Bill of Rights passes N.C. Senate, moves back to N.C. House with amendment
By Maddie Singleton | Jun. 2
- House Bill 755, Parent’s Bill of Rights, passed in the N.C. Senate with an amendment on Wednesday.
- Sen. Michael V. Lee, R-New Hanover, sent forward the amendment, which fixed a clerical error with the numbering of the bill and clarified the definition of parents to include all legal guardians.
- The bill’s controversy comes from sections that would require parental notification if a student uses a different name or pronoun and would prohibit the instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity in K-3 curriculums.
