FARGO Two Republican-led bills targeting public education advanced and another two bills failed to make the crossover in the North Dakota Legislature last week.
The halfway point, known as the crossover, is when bills passed in the House go before the Senate, and bills passed in the Senate go before the House for consideration. To become law, a bill has to pass both legislative chambers.
House Bill 1281, a proposal to offer an annual income tax credit of up to $2,000 for families whose children are enrolled in nonpublic schools or in home education, survived with a 50-44 vote in the House of Representatives and is now being considered by the Senate.
Kennedy Gjovik told a North Dakota legislative committee that she attempted her first suicide at 10 years old.
âI was in the third grade when the cyberbullying started,â she said. âI was added into a group chat that kids from my previous school were in. The first message was, âWhy donât you go kill yourself?ââ
Gjovik, now a college freshman, testified in front of the Senate Human Services Committee on February 9 in favor of Senate Bill 2311. The bill sponsor, Sen. Joan Heckaman, D-New Rockford, said the bill would get mental health resources and information to students.
âIt should be taught directly to students,â she said. âAn assumption that if the resources are out there, students will access them, seems a little thin.â
