In an apparent response to a failed attempt at bringing a transgender policy to Peoria Unified School District, board member Rebecca Hill doubled down on past anti-PUSD statements at the dais, and at the May 11 meeting, said moving forward she will vote against important agenda items until a transgender policy is approved.
With Teachers Appreciation Week as the backdrop, Hill said she doesn’t feel it is appropriate to give money to schools that are not going to support every single student.
“And so from this point forward, pretty much until we start supporting 100% of our population of students at PUSD, which obviously includes the girls, I am voting no on a lot of stuff,” she said. “I don’t see the point of putting any money, a dime, into such a broken, evil system.”
