Kirby Wilbur interviews Mindi Wirth from Parents for Safe Schools, sponsor of Referendum 90.

From the website www.parentsforsafeschools.com

"Welcome to Parents for Safe Schools.

We are citizens working to let voters have their say on ESSB 5395 – the state-mandated, K-12 sex education bill recently passed by the Legislature.

As parents we have a responsibility to protect our children from inappropriate, ideology-based curriculum. This bill was passed late in the session with very little opportunity for ordinary citizens to testify and no amendments accepted. Parents and their local school boards deserve a voice in controversial curriculum decisions. And many school districts cannot afford an expensive, unfunded mandate.

Please join Parents for Safe Schools and help give citizens a voice. We have 90 days to qualify this measure with more than 129,811 signatures so we need YOUR help.

Use the buttons above to sign-up to request a petition – and please DONATE so we have the funds to make this campaign a reality."
