High school students must get above 70% in a 25 question civics test.

Teachers and students would support this bill, high school students would oppose this bill.

I would not pass this bill due to the sheer amount of stress highschool already puts on you, this would add way to much stress and anxiety and take a toll on their mental health.

This bill is in the house of delegates and is getting worked on by the education committee.

If any person who commits a threat of any kind, on school grounds or school bus are commiting a possible felony.

The kinds of people who would support this bill are, Principals and Bus drivers who are tired of threats being made towards eachother.

The kinds of people who wouldn't like this bill are the students who are making the threats.

Would we pass this bill?

Jordyn: Yes, because it's not ok to come to a school with little kids and do stuff to them.

Isabella: Yes, due to the fact that more and more children are going home everyday feeling unsafe because of the threats made. If we had this law then those children would feel more safe.

The current status of this bill, is that the bill was put on a pause and people are hesitating to move foward.

The Bill says 911 dispatchers should receive workers compensation if the dispatcher gets PTSD from their job. People believe the 911 dispatchers should get this compensation because they go through stressful situations everyday. Everyone would support this bill because 911 operators are very important and need to be stress free to properly do their jobs. No one would oppose this bill because 911 operators save lives. I would pass this bill because everyone needs to be helped properly. The current status of this bill is being worked on.

DWI for Marijuana (Introduced Jan. 2024) This bill says that a person is intoxicated if have a certain level of marijuana in their blood, they can get felonies for DWI (driving while intoxicated). They think this will increase the number of ppl getting felony convicted. I think sober people that want driving safer and better will support this bill. it makes the world safer, while drunk and people doing marijuana will oppose it, for obvious reasons.. they want it with them. I would pass this bill because marijuana is not good for people and can lead to serious crashes. Status: the House referred the bill to the Courts of Justice Committee. P.S. - Elijah Ledell Martin did nothing and it was all Luke Burley Day!!
