Coming from the D Party this doesnt sound much like a D Party proposal (Cooper). Teachers would see an average pay raise of 9.1 percent over two years with no teacher receiving less than a 3 percent raise in either year.
In other proposals (not sure who proposed the bill):
House Bill 216 – The School Self-Defense Act – would make it legal for teachers and staff members to carry concealed handguns on school grounds “to respond to acts of violence or imminent threats of violence.”
Senate Bill 192 – The School Security Act of 2019 – would incentivize teachers to carry concealed weapons, provide training and pay raises for teachers who undergo law enforcement training, and make them sworn law enforcement officers too.
