5/14/2019

0 Comments

 
Albany - Today, BPCLC Co-Chairs Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins, Assembly Member Ellen Jaffee, and Senator Liz Krueger hosted the BPCLC Annual Legislative Breakfast for new and current members.

​The agenda included a legislative briefing on Comprehensive Sexuality Education (CSE) by Jennifer Driver, State Policy Director, the Sexuality Information and Education Council of the United States (SIECUS); and an overview of Comprehensive Sexuality Education bill S4844 /A6512 by two of the four Co-Prime Sponsors, Senator Jen Metzger and Assembly Member Richard Gottfried (Senator Velmanette Montgomery and Assembly Member Catherine Nolan are also Co-Prime Sponsors). BPCLC and leading reproductive rights advocacy groups support this bill, as it includes core tenets and components of CSE, and the BPCLC hopes that this bill will pass in 2019.


BPCLC members also heard from Robin Chappelle Golston, President and CEO, Planned Parenthood Empire State Acts (PPESA) and Christa Christakis, Executive Director, American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG), District II.
