Stop the Senate Book Ban Bill The Federal Government shouldn't decide what your children are allowed to read.

The Senate is considering S. 4925, legislation that will pave the way for a nationwide book ban in schools receiving federal education funding.

By using broad definitions of prohibited materials, the bill could make it easier to remove books, silence authors, and limit what students are allowed to read and learn.

Americans should decide what their own children read, not politicians in Washington.

Tell the Senate to reject S. 4925 and defend the freedom to read.

Will you sign?

We strongly oppose S. 4925, legislation that we believe would accelerate book banning in America's schools and undermine every student's freedom to read.

The freedom to read is not a partisan value. It is an American value. Students deserve the opportunity to encounter new ideas, think critically, and make informed decisions for themselves. Removing books because they address difficult topics or reflect the experiences of different communities does not prepare young people for citizenship. It limits their education.

We call on the United States Senate to reject S. 4925 and stand with students, educators, librarians, authors, publishers, and millions of Americans who believe that the answer to a book you dislike is not government censorship.
