Controversial GOP 'Parents Bill of Rights' passes House despite Democratic opposition.

The House passed the GOP-sponsored Parents Bill of Rights Act, which requires public school districts to publicly post information about curricula for students, including providing parents with a list of books and reading materials available in school libraries. The bill also requires schools to offer at least two in-person parent-teacher meetings annually, disclose their district budgets, and notify parents of violent activity occurring at schools or at events sponsored by schools. The White House has rejected the bill, and the Senate, controlled by Democrats, is not expected to take up the legislation.
