This measure voices support for the “Rise Up for LGBTQI+ Youth in Schools” initiative. It calls on communities across the country to stand up for equal learning opportunities, basic civil rights protections, and freedom from “erasure” for all K–12 students, especially LGBTQI+ young people. In simple terms, it urges schools and communities to make sure every student feels seen, safe, and able to learn without discrimination or exclusion .
