Religious Leaders Fight Homosexuality in Schools

Recently Religious conservatives in California launched a referendum to overturn a new law that they believe will promote homosexuality in the schools, reported the San Diego Union-Tribune.

 

Less than a month after Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger signed the gay rights Senate Bill 777 into law in October, conservative voters began the expensive initiative, which would require more than 400,000 signatures to be placed on the ballot.

 

Karen England, executive director of Capitol Resource Institute, a California group that opposed Bill 777, said the new law basically meant “getting rid of ‘mom and dad’ in textbooks or adding homosexual couples.”
