OPPOSE "sexually explicit" bill
 

Sex and sexuality are part of the human experience and as such, are often addressed in literature. The proposed bill to limit reading material in schools is overly broad and should not be passed. Our students need and deserve the opportunity to learn from a rich variety of texts and to be able to think for themselves.
