Clean sweep of teachers in Senate parent trigger bill
Take a look at this Google doc of the newly revised Parent Empowerment bill, notable for the clean sweep of any mention of teachers or educators. See my blog yesterday on the odd changes to this bill.

The bill, which passed the House, is in a Senate subcommittee today. Will update later what happened there.

Now, the teacher part is gone.
