R 90 and i-1109

1. R-90 (Nov 20) and
I-1109 (Jan 21)
What, where and how to proceed
Sex Education

2. How did we get here?
History Lesson
 1988 HIV/AIDS Omnibus Bill: mandates all public schools, gr. 5-12 teach
condom use and defining all forms of sexual intercourse to deal with epidemic
 2005 Guidelines created by Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction
(OSPI) after legislative debate about sex education to assuage concerns
 2007 Healthy Youth Act: regulatory sex ed law that allows ONLY
comprehensive sex-ed (CSE) philosophy be taught in public schools
 This allows OSPI to change K-12 standards based on their interpretation of the
Sexual Health Standards without permission or discussion from elected officials
 April 1, 2020 SB 5395: bill passed that mandates CSE in all K-12 public schools

9. Referendum 90 STEP
>50% of voters Reject R-90
CSE no longer mandated
Schools can still choose
to teach CSE
>50% of voters Approve R-90
CSE mandate remains
All schools must teach CSE

10. Reject R-90
this Nov
Don’t be confused by the legal language:

11. Even if R-90 is rejected we
need I-1109 to replace CSE
I-1109 replaces CSE philosophy with parental choice

12. Initiative 1109 STEP
 Local school boards and parents choose the program – not the state
 Sexual health taught on an opt-in basis for grades 5-12
 Material must be available online for citizen review
 Must be available for public broadcast
 Supports primary prevention / students avoid sexual risk-taking
behaviors
