Victory #1 – School Choice Bill Passes The Senate!

In 2011 Indiana passed the most expansive school choice law in the Nation. Advance America supported this legislation and also supports expanding it so more parents can choose where to educate their child.  The Indiana Supreme Court upheld the 2011 law by a vote of 5-0 on 3-26-13!  HB 1003 would do a number of things including:  permitting siblings to be eligible for a school choice voucher and permitting some kindergarten children to also qualify for a voucher.
 
Senate Vote 27 – 23!
 
The Senate passed HB 1003 by a vote of 27-23.  The House and Senate will now work to reconcile differences in the two versions of the bill.

Senate Bill 371, as presented to the Senate on April 11, 2013, would require facilities that perform chemical abortions to meet the same standards as facilities that do surgical abortions; and would strengthen Indiana’s informed consent for abortion law by requiring a woman to certify in writing that she does not want to see an ultrasound of her unborn baby or hear her baby’s heartbeat.  The Senate voted 35-14 to concur with changes made in the House on April 11, 2013.  The bill now goes to Governor Pence!
