HB1788: Bill Hearings & Public Record
HB 1788 is a bill that seeks to immediately terminate all contracts held by state agencies, municipalities, and schools with any organization that references any of their services. This bill would be in contradiction with federal regulations surrounding Medicare and Medicaid (nursing homes and healthcare providers often are required to have staff take training to understand religious differences in care) and school professional development (many PD training required by educators must include elements that empower teachers to meet diverse student populations). This bill works in opposition to two of our policy platform pillars: affirming environments and economic safety.
