Legislation was introduced in Congress on Thursday to dull some of the negative effects of the Bush Administration's abstinence only school programs.

The Responsible Education About Life Act would create a grant program administered by the Department of Health and Human Services that would award $206 million per year to states for comprehensive sexuality education.

Currently, states can only receive federal funding for sexuality education if they teach abstinence-only-until-marriage programs that routinely exclude information about contraception and sexually transmitted diseases.


gee, wonder if this dead in the water?
