"• Governor Smiley, makes me smile. On Thursday, Senator Al Franken introduced the long awaited Student Non-Discrimination Act. This bill would protect GLBT students and those perceived to be LGBT from bullies and the school administrators that refuse to protect them. The bill put an end to discrimination for LGBT students and administrators who ignore harassing behavior. Violators of the law would possibly loose federal funding and would open themselves up to lawsuits under the law. Franken said, “Our nation’s civil rights laws protect our children from bullying due to race, sex, religion, disability and national origin. My proposal corrects a glaring injustice and extends these protections to our gay and lesbian students who need them just as badly.” It’s nice to know that someone is looking out for the most vulnerable of children."
I think this is simply beautiful and I hope people actually take this serious!!!!!!! One more to check off of our list!!!!!YAYYYYYY
