Credited from: THEGUARDIAN

  • A school district in Texas temporarily removed the Bible from its libraries in compliance with House Bill 900, aimed at banning sexually explicit content in schools.
  • The district, serving 11,000 students, reinstated the Bible soon after facing backlash from parents and officials who deemed the move absurd.
  • Critics of HB900 argue it threatens constitutional freedoms and may lead to the banning of more literature, including classic works.
  • Following public outcry and clarification on the law, Canyon ISD confirmed the Bible is now available alongside compliance with state guidelines.
  • The incident highlights broader efforts by conservatives to increase parental control over school curricula amidst ongoing legal challenges.
