HARRISBURG – Philadelphia County Rep. Chris Rabb will be reintroducing legislation that would establish procedures to protect public school students’ right to read and learn. The legislation would require school boards to establish an educational resource material review committee that goes through a thorough review of the materials as facilitated by experts familiar with the content of the disputed material prior to a motion being made by an elected school board to remove such material. The legislation would also prohibit school districts from banning books because they discuss topics like race and LGBTQ issues.
