Mary Lazich and abstinence...

I see that Senator Mary Lazich's abstinence bill is gaining momentum in the legislature. Looking around the County, we now have Senator Kedsie and his bullying mandate bill, Rep. Jensen and his same sex classrooms bill and Lazich's abstinence bill. Without regard to the merits of each, it is certainly reassuring to see our elected officials taking on some of the most pressing issues facing public education today.

I can hardly wait to read more about these bills when the next round of updates or campaign brouchures begin to descend to my mailbox, reminding me that all of our legislators are supportors of quality public education.

Perhaps next they can tackle whether spaghetti straps should be worn in high schools...
