In a party-line vote, ESHB 2331 passed from the state House of Representatives. I spoke in opposition to this policy because it trusts Olympia partisans over parents.

A few things that ESHB 2331 does includes,

• Directs the Instructional Materials Committee to include recommendations for culturally and experientially representative instructional materials;
• Prohibits school districts, charter schools, and state-tribal education compact schools from refusing to approve or prohibit the use of any instructional or supplemental instructional material on the basis that it relates to or includes the study of the role and contributions of any individual or group who is part of a protected class unless the content contains discriminatory bias.

Failure comply could lead to funding reductions.
