What a great way to deal with the Teacher Shortage.

And what a great way to encourage young people to go into the field.

Florida and New Hampshire are going to have some school staffing problems in the future.

This bill is utter bullshit.

"Loyalty" is an assumed character trait of degreed, licensed education professionals.
These legislators are stupid.

Looks like they inadvertently outlawed the Republican Party and the entire Trump criminal conspiracy.

The "overthrow the government by force" language is a relic from the bad old days of Red-baiting, when anyone suspected of being a Communist could have imputed to him a desire to overthrow the government by force. What are the conservatives going to do when that language is used against them, particularly in connection with their craven obeisance to the former guy?

NH is called the south of the north.

The real shame is that we are a very purple state, definitely not MAGA red except among a handful of state legislators.

This kind of “divisive language” crap is horrifying.

I guess they are okay with that.

Someone must have spent an hour writing that complex amendment.
