Louisiana Safe Schools Action Alert Apr 23 08
Do you want to make schools safe for all students in Louisiana?
Get involved with the state-wide anti-bullying bill.
The Louisiana Anti-Bullying bill made it out of committee today in a very strong vote of 11-4. This is the closest we have ever been to passage of this important legislation that will instruct all schools to employ a very strong Anti-Bullying policy that is inclusive of ALL Children and especially enumerates protection for actual or perceived sexual orientation and gender identity. Because youth with LGBTQ parents who face bullying in schools are often targeted because they too are perceived to be gay, this bill would mandate that schools protect COLAGErs.
Now the bill must pass the full House. URGE all House Members to not only VOTE for this bill but to sign on as a Co-Author. Contact your representative today as this bill goes up for the
full house Vote as early as MONDAY OR TUESDAY of next week.
Here are the particulars:
HB 674 - Anti-Bullying Bill or "Safe Schools Bill" - Authored by Representative Walt Leger

Urge them to vote for this bill to create a more safe learning environment for all students.
