Restrict federal funding for elementary and middle schools that let students change pronouns, gender markers, or sex-based accommodations without parental consent.

“My bill will safeguard parental rights, improve the crucial relationship between parents and schools, and ensure that children can learn in an environment free from activist ideology.” The PROTECT Kids Act would restrict federal funding for any elementary or middle school that allows students to change their pronouns, gender markers, or sex-based accommodations (including locker rooms and bathrooms) without the consent of their parents.

Scott promoted the PROTECT Kids Act as a measure to safeguard parental rights by withholding federal funding from schools that allow certain gender-related changes or accommodations without parental consent.
