From left to right, Reps. Jamie Allard, R-Eagle River; Justin Ruffridge, R-Soldotna; and CJ McCormick, D-Bethel, consider House Bill 105 during a meeting of the House Education Committee on Wednesday, April 26, 2023.
The bill is not yet final; it awaits further committee hearings and has yet to pass either the House or Senate., which originally stated that parents would have to opt into sex-education classes. The governor’s office labeled the measure a “parental rights” bill, and its details resembled those debated in majority-Republican states across the country.
Given that the governor’s original idea was for “parents rights” legislation, he said, “if we’re going to hear a bill and do work on a bill about parents rights, we should really talk about it in its entirety.”“Here’s the plan for the next three or four months, here’s the books we’re going to read and the categories we’re going to discuss. Please let me know if this sounds good to you,” he said, describing a hypothetical process.
On the seven-member education committee, four Republicans — Reps. Jamie Allard, R-Eagle River; Mike Prax, R-North Pole; Tom McKay, R-Anchorage; and Ruffridge — voted for the changed bill.
