Apparently, our tax dollars cover the cost of clown makeup for Rep. Scott Allen and Sen. Andre Jacque

 

Not to mention the waste of time on a book censorship crusade.

Headline:  Wisconsin Examiner, 12/8/2023

One day, teachers and library staff across Wisconsin may find that they could be prosecuted for allowing K-12 students to view certain books or other materials. A new Republican legislative proposal to penalize educators for exposing children to obscene materials comes out of a wider effort to restrict what K-12 students can see or read. The bill had its day on Tuesday before the Republican-led Assembly Committee on Education. AB-308 would remove protections for school and library staff against being prosecuted for providing “obscene” materials to minors. If passed, the bill would create a new class of felons — teachers and library staff who are found to have provided students with inappropriate books or other media.
