*CLARIFICATION* HEA 1608 restricts teaching “human sexuality” in pre-K to grade 3 schools.
When Rahul isn’t in school, he spends his time at the statehouse advocating for environmental and energy causes. But being gay himself, Rahul is also concerned for the future of LGBTQ+ Hoosiers.
Rahul, 17, talks with me about Indiana’s recent legislation targeting the LGBTQ+ community, how Indiana maintains its Republican supermajority, and how he feels about all of it.
Learn more about Rahul and other youths’ climate activism efforts here.
