Broward's Bogdanoff criticized for stand on anti-bullying measure to protect gay kids

Democrat Christian Chiari, who is challenging state Rep. Ellyn Bogdanoff, R-Fort Lauderdale, is criticizing her for voting against an amendment that would have added added mental disabilities, physical disabilities, and sexual orientation to a list of categories required in school anti-bullying policies contained in House Bill 669.

But the Anti-Defamation League is pleased with the product because of a commitment that the bill covers all students, even though the categories aren't spelled out, falling short of what the organization sought.
