I am hearing that some of the concern was just with the way this particular law was written. There is some component of it that impacts the free speech of 18+ year old former students and ex-teachers, not just 18 year old students and current teachers. Something about prior restraint.
Maybe if the law is narrowed down it will pass?
The problem isn’t with the bill, or the way it’s written, it’s the very idea that male teachers can’t have at the young girls ~ just like they could if this whole crowd had stayed in Mexico.
Asking that adults act like adults is just too much I guess.
Of course this admin sends free condoms to 11 year olds, so who knows.
