Action 2 News reached out to one of the authors of the bill. Representative Jerry O’Connor gave this statement: 

 It says in part: “I am in support of this bill which secures the rights of parents to be informed of the library materials their children are exposed to in our schools. Many school districts choose appropriate materials for their libraries while many schools are exposing our children to increasingly harmful materials in our libraries.”
