SB 930 – "Freedom to Learn Act"

• Repeals Florida's prohibition on classroom instruction about sexual orientation and gender identity in prekindergarten through grade 8 and removes age-appropriateness requirements for grades 9-12
• Repeals restrictions on training or instruction related to concepts such as systemic racism, sexism, oppression, and privilege across public schools, teacher preparation programs, school leader programs, professional learning certification programs, and general education courses
• Requires instruction in LGBTQ history in public schools, including topics such as Obergefell v. Hodges, Windsor v. United States, the Florida Legislative Investigation Committee, and the Pulse Nightclub tragedy
• Authorizes and encourages Florida College System institutions, state universities, and their direct-support organizations to develop programs based on diversity, equity, and inclusion principles and to expend state or federal funds on such programs, reversing the existing prohibition
• Revises school library and instructional materials provisions by removing the requirement to pull challenged materials within 5 school days, eliminating county residents' (non-parents') ability to file objections, exempting classroom libraries from certain restrictions, and adding protections against removing materials due to partisan or doctrinal disapproval
