in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

Money under this chapter cannot pay for school construction, most transportation, or distributing birth control in schools. It also can't fund materials promoting sexual activity, obscene material for minors, sex education that skips abstinence's benefits, or giving weapons to anyone — except normal enrichment activities like archery or hunting.

No money under this chapter may be used: (1) to build, renovate, or repair a school building, unless this chapter specifically allows it; (2) for transportation, unless this chapter specifically allows it; (3) to create or hand out materials, or run programs or courses aimed at young people, that are designed to promote or encourage sexual activity, whether homosexual or heterosexual; (4) to distribute, or help any group distribute, legally obscene material to minors on school grounds; (5) to provide sex education or HIV-prevention education in schools, unless it's age-appropriate and covers the health benefits of abstinence; (6) to run a program that distributes contraceptives in schools; or (7) to give anyone a "dangerous weapon" (as defined in section 930(g)(2) of title 18) or to train anyone in using one — except this rule doesn't block using chapter funds for otherwise-allowed educational or enrichment activities like archery, hunting, other shooting sports, or culinary arts.
