Rep. Tom Suozzi says he doesn’t support Florida’s controversial new 'Don't Say Gay' law — despite saying some aspects of it were “reasonable” and made “common sense” just last week.

, in which he called Florida’s Parental Rights in Education bill a “very reasonable law not to try to get kids in kindergarten to be talking about sex.”

“I want to clear up any misunderstandings: I oppose Gov. DeSantis,” Suozzi said. “I oppose the, Don’t Say Gay bill, full stop. I oppose them. I fully support LGBT families.” Rosenberg said the law “prohibits teachers from talking sex, genitals, stuff like that, with kids in kindergarten through third grade.”Suozzi responded: “I think it’s a very reasonable law, not to try and get kids in kindergarten talking about sex. I mean, that’s very reasonable, and so I totally understand that. I wish it wouldn’t become such a hot-button issue [where] people are just attacking each other – it's just common sense.

On Tuesday, Suozzi said he was responding to the concept raised by Rosenberg that kindergarteners would be taught about “sex and genitals.”
