Krugman is a perfect example of why we have such hatred amongst Dems today.

His column is one big lie. Start to finish.

For example, on the sex education bill, it clearly states, "Each class or course in comprehensive sex
14 education offered in any of grades K 6 through 12 shall
15 include instruction on the prevention of sexually transmitted
16 infections, including the prevention, transmission and spread
17 of HIV AIDS.

ilga.gov

Now, it mentions "age appropriate" in one section, but does not define it in any way. And when it mentions it, the same section goes on to describe course material REQUIREMENTS to include "discussion of sexual abstinence as a method....", "side effects and health benefits of all forms of contraception, including success and failure rates....", and that materials shall stress "that sexually transmitted infections are serious possible hazards of sexual activity".

It does not provide any exception for K-6 other than this vague term "age appropriate".

Krugman lied.
