Louisiana Senators and Representatives need to hear from you TODAY!
The Senate Education Committee REFUSED to hear opposition to the bill in order to push it through. That means they need to hear from you, RIGHT NOW.
No library in Louisiana shelves obscene materials. Libraries have internet filters in place to guard against obscenity and harmful images. Suggesting otherwise in SB7 is simply a political ploy on the part of the sponsors to earn media attention. Louisiana libraries have strong protections in place to keep kids' materials separate from books for adults, including age-restricted library cards, separate shelving areas, and policies that require children to be accompanied by a parent or guardian. SB7 / HB102 is a “solution in search of a problem.”
