School Sued After Suspending Teacher for Opposing Transgender Activism

A school district in Virginia that suspended a teacher after he objected to orders to call boys by feminine pronouns, and vice versa, has been sued because its politically correct agenda appears to violate the law.

The lawsuit against the Loudoun County Public Schools was announced Tuesday by the Alliance Defending Freedom.

Teacher Byron Tanner Cross has taught at Leesburg Elementary School for several years, but was suspended after he exercised his First Amendment rights to comment on the proposed school policies at a school board meeting.

The policies at issue “would force teachers to violate their conscience as educators and their deeply held beliefs by requiring them to address students with their chosen pronouns rather than the ones consistent with their biological sex,” the legal team argues.
