Arizona Senate OKs making list of books to ban in schools [View all]
State senators gave preliminary approval Thursday to a measure directing the Education Department to come up with a list of books to ban in public schools.
And it wouldn’t just include lewd or sexual materials.
SB1700 would require the department, now headed by elected Republican Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Horne, to also include on that list materials that “promote gender fluidity or gender pronouns.’’
The measure includes similar language on what local school boards and school libraries would be required to remove from shelves.
