From Good to Bad
================
🚨🚨🚨A Call To Action!🚨🚨🚨
-----------------------
This excerpt is taken from [Think Liberty Idaho]([link removed]). It is a great rundown on how the library bill has transformed over the last several sessions from good to worthless.
Â
**The Transformation of Idaho's "Library Bill"Â **
Â
**2022 - H666** would have removed the exemption afforded to schools and libraries to distribute harmful materials to minors. Senator Winder refused the bill a Senate hearing after it passed 51-14 (5 absent) in the House. Yes votes on H666 included; Furniss, McCann, Yamamoto and Hartgen (now a Senator) who all voted Nay on 2023's library bills.Â
Â
**2023- H139** would have allowed a civil action up to $10,000 against a school or public library that disseminated pornographic, harmful material to minors. This bill was killed in House Education Committee by Chair Julie Yamamoto and Vice Chair Lori McCann.Â
Â
**2023- H314** would have dropped the civil action of H139 to $2,500. This bill passed both the House & Senate and was vetoed by Governor Brad Little. The vote to override the veto in the House failed by ONE. Representatives that voted against overriding the Governor's veto; Bundy, Cheatum, Dixon (24), Furniss, Garner, Lanting, McCann, Mickelsen, Nelsen, Petzke, Raymond, Sauter, Wroten, Yamamoto.Â
Â
**2024- H384** would have required 30 day written notification to the school or library to allow for the moving of the pornographic material prior to a $250 civil action. This bill was set for debate on the House floor but was pulled at the last minute in order to present a compromise bill with Senator Geoff Schroeder (who voted against H314 in 2023).Â
Â
**2024- S1289** This compromise bill of Rep. Jaron Crane (D12) and Senator Geoff Schroeder (D8) requires parents to submit a relocation form to the school or library which then will go before a Material Review Committee. Only after the Material Review Committee refuses the relocation of the book in question can the parent move on to a $250 civil action. This bill also removes from the definition of obscene material "The quality of any material or of any performance, or of any description or representation, in whatever form, which, as a whole, has the dominant effect of substantially arousing sexual desires in persons under the age of 18."
Here's Geoff Schroeder, a self admitted atheist, (also a lawyer for several public libraries) stating there is no issue with porn in the libraries while presenting his bill.
🚨🚨🚨Call To Action🚨🚨🚨
====================
Let your voice be heard. Tell the House and the Senate that you do not want a watered down library bill and it's time to put politics aside and do what is best for the minds of the children.

**We need a library bill, but we need a good library bill. AND THIS IS NOT IT!**

District 8 Is A Mess!
---------------------
District 8 is a mess. Two legislators have been censured by every county they represent AND the Idaho GOP. The third, Megan Blanksma, was just removed as House Majority Leader from her fellow Republicans in the House. It doesn't get much worse than this!
It gets worse!
--------------
This past week the house had a chance to vote to ban all mask mandates by the State of Idaho but both of District 8's legislators voted against it! Unbelievable!
The good news is that District 8 has a major opportunity to fix this in May.
Open up your checkbooks and write a check to:
[Christy Zito]([link removed]) (running against Geoff Schroeder)
[Rob Beiswenger]([link removed]) (running against Matthew Bundy)
Faye Thompson (running against Megan Blanksma)
