Focus schools on education, not LGBT indoctrination
All three GOP candidates for Alabama's open U.S. Senate seat voiced support for Alabama's recent passage of legislation involving LGBT issues, including an amendment modeled on Florida's so called˙"Don't Say Gay" bill.
"Our schools should be focused on education, not indoctrination," said Katie Britt, former chief of staff for Senator Richard Shelby whose seat she is now vying for.
Both Britt and candidate Mike Durant, a former
Army helicopter pilot, said they support the Alabama legislation as a reinforcement of Christian values in schools.
"Of course, our youngest students should not be learning about sex in the classroom--that's the role of parents, not teachers," said
Britt. "We need to get God back in our classrooms and return students to saying the Pledge of Allegiance every day while standing for our flag."

Supports voluntary pre-K program, school choice
I staunchly support Alabama's voluntary First Class Pre-K program, which has been ranked as the nation's best for 15 consecutive years. I also believe strongly in school choice, because every single Alabama child deserves the best possible education.
The jobs of tomorrow require quality education now, and I am dedicated to supporting Alabama's children from the womb to the workforce.
