Senator Runestad’s statement is as follows:
In regards to this bill, I have a document that talks about the American College of Obstetricians and
Gynecologists which admits as recently as 2021 that the existence of a body of literature evaluating prenatal
care, though growing, is relatively small and includes mostly observational studies which yield a mix of
positive and negative results. There are some medical providers, insurance, that do cover these things; others
apparently do not. I don’t think we should be mandating something that is not proving effective.

Act and, therefore, not obligated to provide curriculum material to parents to review. As a parent, I find this
legal loophole alarming as it denies parents the right to know what is being taught in their children’s
classrooms. I know from the many concerned parents I’ve heard from on this issue that I’m not alone. Parents
shouldn’t face lawsuits, be forced to pay thousands of dollars, or have to wait months just to see what is
being taught in their child’s classroom. I ask for you to join me in support of parents and open government,
and for your “yes” vote on my amendment.

because it is a crisis by every measure.
While our traditional public-school students languish in the bottom-ten nationally in just about every key
indicator, these bills will do nothing to raise the bar, improve outcomes, empower parents, or make sure kids
don’t fall through the cracks. Instead, at 2 o’clock in the morning under the cover of darkness in lame duck,
they’re jamming these bills through without a full review of what they’re doing. In the name of transparency?
