This resolution expresses support for the goals and ideals of **Sex Ed For All Month**, an observance dedicated to ensuring all young people have access to inclusive and honest sex education. It highlights persistent racial disparities, high rates of unintended teen pregnancy, and sexually transmitted infections among young people, underscoring the critical need for quality sexual health information. The resolution emphasizes that comprehensive sex education can delay sexual intercourse, increase contraceptive use, and reduce physical aggression in intimate relationships. The House of Representatives calls on public and elected officials to advocate for and invest in sex education legislation, encouraging state and local governments to recognize and support this initiative. It prioritizes **evidence-informed, comprehensive, equitable, and medically accurate** sex education programs, while discouraging those that withhold health-promoting information or promote gender and racial stereotypes. The resolution also recommends implementing sex education in schools and providing professional development for educators to ensure all youth have access to vital sexual health information.
