Bennet, Colleagues Address School Safety Concerns with New Legislation
Bill Would Require School Districts Across the Country to Develop and Implement Locally Driven Anti-Bullying Policies
Mar 22, 2018
A Department of Education study found that one in five children between the ages of 12 and 18 are affected by bullying. In an effort to address this ongoing issue, Colorado U.S. Senator Michael Bennet, joined by more than 30 colleagues, this week introduced the Safe Schools Improvement Act. This legislation would help ensure that no child is afraid to go to school for fear of unchecked bullying and harassment.
