Virginia Democrats try to block bill banning teachers from hiding students’ transgender status from parents
Fox News
The Virginia House of Delegates passed a bill that would require schools to tell parents if a minor student expresses that they are experiencing "gender incongruence."
Under the bill, schools would also be obligated to inform parents if the student requests that the school affirm their gender transition, as well as obtain at least one parent’s permission before implementing any plan concerning any gender incongruence experienced by a minor, including counseling.

The bill passed the state House Tuesday, with one Republican and all 47 Democrats voting against, and it’s now heading to the state Senate.
