General Assembly
No vote; libraries, schools would have faced felonies
NIKI KELLY | The Journal Gazette
INDIANAPOLIS – A bill that would have made it a felony for schools and libraries to disseminate harmful material to minors died without a vote in the Indiana Senate on Tuesday.
Sen. Jim Tomes, R-Wadesville, decided not to call Senate Bill 288 for a vote because of a lack of support from his caucus. But he gave a speech saying he will try again next year.
He said examples provided to the Education Committee included material not even fit for adults – much less kids.
“Sometimes you stand alone when you stand for something,” Tomes said. “It was a good cause. The government does have a duty sometimes to get involved in some things. I was just trying to set up protection for little kids.”
