@cfiesler One additional detail that’s intriguing:

Illinois’ HB 2789 is the first law that has passed any state legislature explicitly prohibiting book banning. Currently it’s waiting for Gov Pritzker’s signature.

@cfiesler Also useful for high schoolers considering where to go to college and graduates considering where to look for their first job.

@cfiesler Disappointing to see #Michigan lagging other states on this.

This should be easy stuff here.

@cfiesler I would so love to see republicans get bit in the ass at the ballot box for passing these laws.
