GET ME REWRITE: Wisconsin GOP legislators fight crime and inflation with bill to ban 'dirty books'

 

Headline:  WXOW, 5/10/2023

State Rep. Scott Allen, R-Waukesha, and Republican state Sen. Andre Jacque, R-DePere, are looking for support for their plans to ban material they deem obscene from school libraries, as well as allow parents to sue librarians if they break the law. 

“LRB-0522 prohibits schools from using the tax-payer funded common school fund to purchase obscene materials. LRB-0423 removes the exemption for school employees to be held liable for displaying obscene material,” the two wrote on a note to possible co-sponsors in the state legislature. 

Allen calls the pieces of legislation the Protect Childhood Innocence plans.

Just another euphemism for censorship.
