Dear Editor,
Sponsored by Representatives John Francis Moran and Adam J. Scanlon, H3594 is likely to come up for a House vote in 2-4 weeks. It has 50 cosponsors and the Senate passed overwhelmingly a version that would be reconciled after a favorable House vote.
The bill
• Requires any challenger to have standing in the community in order to challenge a book in any libraries in the State of MA
• Protects our librarians
• Assures that parents remain in control of what their children are permitted to read
You can read the full bill here https://malegislature.gov/Bills/194/H3594
Please contact your House Representative to support this bill which will support our libraries and librarians and allow our parents to control what their children read.
