When I read the headline I assumed this was more legislation from Tennessee.
There appears to be a similar effort in Missouri.
Thanks for the link dcnovice. When I wrote the OP I hadn't heard of this, or the effort in Tennessee (thanks kalikshama).
"[i ] HB 2051, widely known as the “don’t say gay” bill, is pithy in its wording and straightforward in its intentions:
Notwithstanding any other law to the contrary, no instruction, material, or extracurricular activity sponsored by a public school that discusses sexual orientation other than in scientific instruction concerning human reproduction shall be provided in any public school."

Far from being "an attack on 1/2 of the US population", as someone has hysterically claimed, it appears that clones of the Russian law are already being proposed in the US by, you've guessed it, "far right demagogues" who in an astonishing coincidence, just happen to be GOP members (precisely as the OP predicted).
Looks like I won't have to invest in a crystal ball[:D]
