GET ME REWRITE!! These 8 Wisconsin Republicans want to punish school librarians for doing their job

 

Bill text:  Wisconsin State Legislature

Headline:  Wisconsin Public Radio, 6/22/2023

Republican lawmakers are proposing a bill that would target "obscene" materials in school libraries and overturn a law that protects public and private school employees from prosecution for distributing the materials. 

A companion bill would prohibit a school district from using school library aid money to purchase any item that could be considered obscene. State Rep. Scott Allen, R-Waukesha, who co-sponsored both bills, said the state holds the "burden of responsibility" to make sure schools aren’t pushing obscenity limits.
