Bill Summary
This bill requires the principal of a public school to permit a representative of a patriotic society that is intended to serve young people under the age of 21 to speak to students during regular school hours in the first quarter of the school year. A patriotic society interested in speaking with students must provide the school principal with verbal or written notice of the society's intent to speak to the students to inform the students about the civic involvement of the society, and to explain how students may participate in or join the patriotic society. The bill provides that a patriotic society cannot solicit personal information from students during the visit. Under the bill, a school principal has discretion over the time, place, and manner of the representative's visit. As used in this bill, "patriotic society" means an organization listed in Title 36 of the United States Code.
