Hearings on Two Important Bills Today, January 18!
Please Help Take Action to Support Our Legislators!
Criminal Justice and Public Safety Committee
SUPPORT – HB 1012 – Exempting from criminal penalty certain parenting decisions intended to encourage a child’s independence and freedom.
This bill would ensure parents cannot be found guilty of child endangerment for making a parenting decision that is not otherwise illegal and presents no more than a hypothetical risk of harm. Protect parents’ rights and the ability of children to grow into independence.
Education Commitee
SUPPORT – HB 1419 – Relative to prohibiting obscene or harmful sexual materials in schools.
This bill will prohibit materials harmful to minors, in schools. It would establish a system for filing complaints and for removal of such materials. Democrats and the NEA are already labeling this bill as a “book banning” bill. They are so blatantly wrong, it is not. This is about protecting minors from harmful materials, and ensuring parents and guardians (who by the way, are also taxpayers supporting the schools) are part of a complaint resolution process.
