An Act regarding free expression

Summary

It requires school librarians or designated staff to choose library items based on age‑appropriateness, educational purpose, and professional training, not personal views. Challenges to those items must go through a public hearing and school committee vote, and staff are shielded from employment retaliation when they follow the policy. The measure also revises several statutory references to use gender‑neutral terms.
