"The 2021 National School Climate Survey reveals that LGBTQ+ students are experiencing unacceptable rates of bullying and discrimination in the classroom, which impacts their mental health, self-esteem and educational aspirations," said Joseph Kosciw, director of GLSEN Research Institute. But evidence shows that inclusive policies, GSAs, and supportive educators can create environments where all students can thrive.

The verdict comes in response to a comment he made in 2015, alleging that the massacre was "synthetic, completely fake with actors."

One book, "I'm Not Scared … I'm Prepared," was reprinted several times to meet demand after the massacre at Uvalde's Robb Elementary School in May.
