Bill > S02958

This bill enacts the Student Journalist Free Speech Act, which protects student speech in school-sponsored media at public high schools, unless that speech is libelous, an invasion of privacy, or incites students to commit unlawful acts, violate school policies, or materially disrupt the school's operations. The bill defines key terms like "school-sponsored media" and "student journalist," and gives students the right to determine the content of such media, with limited exceptions. It also prohibits retaliation against student media advisors or employees for actions taken in good faith to protect student speech under the act.
