There are a few more days to add bills to the session, and more have come in:
THE GOOD: HB 808 by Rep. Valarie Hodges would prevent teaching in manner that denigrates the worth of students individually; HB 811 by Rep. Blake Miguez would clarify prohibition of outside financial interference in elections; HB 821 by Hodges would prohibit state procurement from communist states and Russia; HB 824 by Rep. Laurie Schlegel would create a money-follows-the-student regime for public education (similar bill: HB 838); HB 837 by Rep. Dodie Horton would keep schools from interfering with family desires for discussions about sexual identity for pre-teens or from allowing educator confessionals about that in the course of classroom instruction of any student.
Meanwhile, bills with some controversy attached seldom begin their legislative process in the first week of the session (especially when it’s the “general” session) so action was light this week:
