A

We have motion second bills properly before us discussion, questions leader, leader, camper, yes, ma'am,.

E

Thank you, mr chairman and uh committee. Looking at this bill and I've talked to the sponsor about it. It appears that the bill was amended after it went through uh health and to me it looked like it's dealing with curriculum and I don't see where the bill went through education at all. So I was thinking we should re-refer this to education, but I want to hear what the sponsors say or what the chairman of education might have to say.

E

If we look at the amendment, it's saying requires a curriculum, be reviewed and approved by lea or charter school, and I don't see that it went through education. So I just have a question about whether this should be referred. Thank.

A

You later chairman reagan.

C

Thank you. uh This did go through health because of the uh requirement and the original bill that the materials generated in the department of health go through the textbook review commission, and that was the uh decision of a clerk and others on that.

C

Essentially what we did was transfer the review from the textbook review commission to the local lea. Otherwise, the intent of the bill is the same is to make sure tennessee standards are adhered to for all the material that is reviewed. It does not affect the distribution of contraception or uh prevent any medically correct information from being distributed.

C

B

Leader, lambert famous chairman, and due respect to the leader, the nature of this type of educational materials, is something I think the department of health works with education on, and it is specifically a health related issue, and so I I do not feel like this would be something that would be appropriate to go back to education. I mean it's been through health. That's who handles this aspect, I think of education. They work in conjunction with education, but it's I think the members gone through the appropriate committee at this time.

B

um While I think it is, you know, obviously something that would be a topic for interesting discussion on the floor. um I wouldn't see any need to send him back at this point.

A

Leader, camper.

E

Thank you, mr chairman. uh I respect that. I just wanted to bring it to the attention of the committee uh because it appeared to me that it dealt with curriculum, and I didn't want us to overlook that fact. But if they're working with the department and the chairman of education is fine with it, then I'm fine with it. Mr chairman,.
