Respondents supported it 50-34.

    Don’t confuse support for one provision to mean support for the entire bill. If you scroll down in the same poll a few questions you will see: “To what extent do you support or oppose the following items in the bill? Allowing parents to sue school districts over alleged violations of sexual orientation and gender identity discussions in schools” Support 41% Oppose 43% https://www.politico.com/f/?id=0000017f-9034-d137-abff-f0f410670000 https://www.politico.com/f/?id=0000017f-9034-d137-abff-f0f41...

    I think it would have been more enlightening if they'd separated out the question, to see how many people would be okay with sexual orientation being taught, but not gender identity. Or vice versa. They're two very different, and somewhat conflicting, concepts. For example, is homosexuality an attraction between people of the same sex, or the same gender identity? This is a contentious issue even amongst adults, never mind teaching it to children.
