Cotton bill takes aim at school policies that 'subvert parental authority' on gender changes

Sen. Tom Cotton's new bill takes aim at public school policies that "subvert parental authority" when it comes to students’ gender identities and gender changes, according to a summary exclusively obtained by Fox News.

"Schools should work with parents to support kids," Cotton told Fox News in a Thursday email. "But when it comes to ‘gender transition,’ many educators believe they know better and have undermined or even outright lied to parents about their own children’s welfare."

"That’s wrong – my bill will help moms and dads fight back against schools that try to take away parents’ responsibility for their children," the senator continued.
