As predicted, Martin Quezada, a\u00a0Planned Parenthood endorsed legislative candidate, sponsored a bill<\/a> in the Arizona legislature to promote something near and dear to Planned Parenthood’s heart:\u00a0 LBGTQXYZ in state-funded government schools.<\/p>\n

Martin Quezada is pulling double-duty for Planned Parenthood by representing Arizona’s District 29 (Glendale and West Phoenix) and also as a member of the Pendergast Elementary School District in the southwest area of Phoenix.\u00a0 Mr. Quezada is in the middle of his term on the school board, but he’s up for reelection to the Arizona legislature this fall.<\/p>\n

In the 2014 campaign, he got a nice check from Planned Parenthood, consider it an early Christmas present for him that year, wrapped in a Pink<\/span> bow:<\/p>\n

Over 18% of Representative Quezada’s contributions in 2014 were from Planned Parenthood.\u00a0 And another $1000 was donated from Dr. Lily Deblieux, the superintendent of Pendergast Schools where Quezada is a board member.\u00a0 Don’t worry about Dr. Deblieux using her last penny to help out this Planned Parenthood candidate.\u00a0 She makes a cool $150,000\/year.\u00a0 You know, it’s “for the children.”<\/p>\n

Here is a blurb from Planned Parenthood Advocates of Arizona\u00a0Facebook page from a few days ago supporting Quezada for another legislative term:<\/p>\n

Coincidentally, look what is showing up in Pendergast’s schools in just a few days.\u00a0 A new<\/a> sex ed curriculum!\u00a0 Although the program does not\u00a0refer to\u00a0Planned Parenthood, there are some suspicious statements in its description which sound like Planned Parenthood’s talking points.\u00a0 Nu-Culture\u00a0is a program administered through Healthy Futures<\/a>, geared at 6th-8th graders, stressing healthy relationships.\u00a0 Where have we heard this before?<\/p>\n

\"nuculture<\/p>\n

Here is a review<\/a> of the Nu-Culture curriculum from a study in Massachusetts.\u00a0 Note what is really going on.<\/p>\n

\"hf<\/p>\n

What is Healthy Futures\/Nu-Culture actually promoting since it is no longer an abstinence-only program?\u00a0\u00a0 Since sex ed is being taught, is Pendergast offering this as opt-in as required by Arizona state law?\u00a0 Is this Pendergast program going to be taught within the laws on the books in the state of Arizona<\/a>?\u00a0 Parents on Phoenix’s west side, please visit your district office and take a look at the curriculum to see what it includes.\u00a0 It is only available for review until August 15th.\u00a0 \"pendergast\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Moving forward, keep an eye on Representative Quezada both on the Pendergast School Board and in the Arizona Legislature.\u00a0 Or better yet, don’t vote for him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
