Events
- 1997 - Just say no ... or else! - The Missouri Senate passed legislation on this date that required teachers teaching sex education to actively promote abstinence as the only acceptable method of preventing pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases. Senator Ken Jacob argued vigorously against the bill, and proposed that the entire sex education program should be scrapped rather than go ahead with a half-assed one. He lost the vote 21-11. The proposal also prohibited school districts from distributing condoms or other contraceptives and it prevented schools from referring a student to another organization or health clinic for help. Ironically, a touring school group was present to witness the debate. None of the kids looked impressed.[1]
