New Katy ISD trustee Perez draws heated criticism, vocal support over stance against LGBTQ resources

is the world's largest suicide prevention and crisis intervention organization for LGBTQ+ youth. Its site is currently blocked by district servers for containing"human sexuality."

Kathy Carpenter, a staunch advocate for Perez, called his inauguration"a glorious day" and requested the other six board members join Perez's efforts to remove LGBTQ materials from schools. Samuels continued,"A newly elected trustee has called for the removal of LGBTQ websites like the Trevor Project — the removal of a suicide prevention lifeline. … I wish I didn't have to tell you that students have unique needs, and they must be given the support they desperately need and deserve. That is protecting the children."
