CONCORD — A bill to remove allegedly inappropriate educational materials and books from classrooms and school libraries was tabled on Thursday, but only after acrimonious debate.
The bill’s prime sponsor, Rep. Glenn Cordelli, R-Tuftonboro, read two graphic pieces he said were available to middle school students, one dealing with rape and the other sexual intercourse that brought howls from some House members and several rebukes from House Speaker Sherman Packard.
