The problem for many opposed to the legislation is how law enforcement officials will determine what constitutes harmful material.
A bill that would open teachers and school librarians to criminal prosecution over the content of books and other educational materials was passed by the Indiana Senate Tuesday.removes a legal defense K-12 schools may use against charges of distributing “harmful material” to minors. It also creates a new process for parents to request the removal of books they find inappropriate from school libraries.
The Indiana Library Federation said it supports such processes but opposes the idea that one family would have the ability to dictate which books other families can access. it describes or represents, in any form, nudity, sexual conduct, sexual excitement, or sado-masochistic abuse;it is patently offensive to prevailing standards in the adult community as a whole with respect to what is suitable matter for or performance before minors; and
During floor debate, Bassler said he was on the fence about how to vote on the bill. He ended up voting for it. Three Republicans joined the nine Democrats present Tuesday to vote against it. Whether that's Tomes intention, though, is cold comfort for those who oppose the bill and question how the law would be applied. Sen. Andrea Hunley, D-Indianapolis, used to teach high school English. She brought up a book about the Middle Passage, the stage of the slave trade in which enslaved Africans were transported to America, that she used to teach with her high school students. The book contained difficult scenes, including nudity and forced kissing.
