I can't believe this bill is even being considered. It's just so sad to think about the potential consequences of repealing this act. It's hard to understand why anyone would want to put our children at risk like this. I really hope this doesn't pass, because the long term effects could be devastating.

I heard about this new bill for students, but I'm not sure how it will really work. It sounds good in theory, but I'm worried about the long term effects on our education system.
