Lawmakers approved the bill in a 213-208 vote after voting on several amendments.would require public school districts to publicly post information about curricula for students, including providing parents with a list of books and reading materials available in school libraries. This comes as some elected Republicans across the country have been intensifying a push to ban some books in schools.

Schools would have to publicly disclose their district budgets as well as the budgets of each school, including revenues and expenditures. They would also have to notify parents of violent activity occurring at schools or at events sponsored by schools.

Of course the democrats refuse to vote for a parents bill of rights. The are the party of authoritarianism

How horrible!

I should think so, about time.

So glad to see democrats and left wing perverts shut down.

School districts already do this. Political theatre is all it is.

Republicans waste time by passing laws about shit teachers already do

That sound like logic. The least parents should expect from the school of their kids, no?

That’s awesome! Parents should have that information. Why was it not made public info to parents before?

Whatta crock of crap. Most parents keep up with what's going on in school with their kids, so this is bullshit designed to distract from REAL issues.

what a nerd his sock and shoes .. DORK CRINGE TOOL MCCARTHY ..

Why would the Democrats vote against this? Every parent should know everything going on in their child’s school… it’s a no brainer!! Stay involved in your students education… visit the school… attend school board meetings.. these are our children.!!

If this thing passes which it won't, (total waste of time) but that's what this congress is all about. Teachers should quit and let these Karen's teach the students. See how long they'd last. lol

There's no reason to have a problem with this.

just as it has done for 50 years... just more republican clownery🙄

Government has to step in for the lazy gop parents....

America land of the free?

State curriculum standards are posted on the state department of education website. The library card catalog is online now. Solving a problem that doesn't exist: the Republican way.

I like the legislation, just not at the federal level. This is the tasks of the states.

This already exists , if it does not you can request to speak with a Principal. If any schools are uncooperative there are school boards and dept of education. Why make a whole bill wasting time on a few parents who have no comprehension .

Most school districts ALREADY publicly post information about curricula for students, including providing parents with a list of books and reading materials available in school libraries. *If they go to Open House or Conferences they can see the actual books. beaparent

How tragic. The party of small government does nothing for Americans except expand the role of gov in people’s lives. Republicans are a cancer.

Federally approved book banning? Republicans following the 1930 Nazi playbook.

Public education should be broad & open. Students need to learn about history, philosophy, classics, art, music, culture, education, humanities/religion, literature - in other words a classic, liberal arts education along with science, math & technology. It's not indoctrination.

Tell me why we should care about the performance politics by House GQP. Can any of these measures pass the Senate? Last time I check, any House passed legislation won't be law without Senate approval and POTUS signature. And you bet the latter won't happen for this type of BS.

Parents rights are Republicans requesting this BS - they want to know the curricula this has always been done at the beginning of school year -why do they want to have a list of books in the library And not a list of books they will be reading in class-they will be banning books

Because the parents are too lazy or incompetent to be pro-actively involved in their children’s education?

No point even writing a story about it.

Turning parents into a demographic and then shitting on them seems like a really smart democrat strategy.

Ok, isn’t this already provided? If parents would be active participants and attend school board meetings, PTA meetings they would already have the information.

Republicans are actively trying to destroy public education so they can groom children in private, for-profit schools.

Progress

HBones7 No one cares what the GOP house passes because it's dead at the Senate. They are just wasting hundreds of millions of dollars on their ridiculous Christo fascist revenge tour for corporate oligarchs

So when do they start burning the books they dont like?

so, more work for teachers. does this include a raise?

Our country is going backwards. When teachers are labelled as the enemy, the religious right has gone too far.

Curriculum standards are already posted for all to see.

Like Republican parents can actually read & comprehend anything. Serious comedy!

How is this going to help the economy 🤔

What’s the overlap of these same parents who never come in for conferences or respond to emails or calls home?

That info is already available.

That is ALREADY available

GOP sets vote on Parents' Bill of Rights Act in clash over schoolsThe bill would give parents greater oversight of what is taught in public schools. Critics say it is a burdensome proposal that would fuel a far-right movement that has resulted in book bans. Book bans 🙄. Give me a break! Porn is not appropriate for anyone under 18. This should be common sense for everyone Honest question. In what world do people think they will get every parent in every school in a school district to agree on a curriculum? This is why we elect school boards, and have Parent Teacher Organizations. Take you kids out of government schools!
