Walters Statement on Frivolous OELC/Appleseed Lawsuit

Oklahoma City, Okla – State Superintendent Ryan Walters has issued the following statement regarding a lawsuit filed today by the Oklahoma Equality Law Center and Oklahoma Appleseed:

“Radical gender theory has led some people to fight the obvious, God-given biological nature of human beings: that there are two genders, male and female, ” said Walters. “Our pronoun policy aligns with common sense, truth, and reality and protects schools and teachers from unfounded accusations of discrimination. This frivolous lawsuit, propped up by the extreme left, is an unserious distraction from the very serious business of improving Oklahoma schools for all our students.”
