Utah Repeals No Promo Homo Law
Utah has repealed “no promo homo” laws restricting discussions of homosexuality in schools, recognising that the laws are discriminatory and harmful. The provision prohibiting “advocacy of homosexuality” in schools was vague in its description and was applied in many schools to silence any discussion of LGBT topics. The law discouraged school personnel from intervening to stop bullying and harassment, deterred teachers from providing basic information, and limited students’ ability to form and organize LGBT groups.
