Bill would require teachers and counselors to register as sex offenders if they assist a student's social transition
Missouri bill would require teachers and counselors to register as sex offenders if they assist a student’s social transition (MSN) A proposed bill filed this week in the Missouri legislature is already turning heads.
House Bill 2885, sponsored by Republican Representative Jamie Gragg, who represents Christian County, states that a teacher or school counselor commits the offense of contributing to the social transition of a student under the age of 18 if they provide support material, information, or other resources regarding child social transition.
The offense would be a class E felony.
The bill classifies social transition as a person who adopts the name, pronouns, gender expression, clothing, and haircuts that match the person’s gender identity, not the gender they were at birth. ...
