SALT LAKE CITY — On Friday morning, Rep. Jordan Teuscher announced he would hold off on a bill requiring teachers to publish all learning material and syllabi online. House Bill 234 will not be considered in the 2022 Legislative Session.
Teuscher, R- South Jordan, announced on Twitter and in a detailed statement he had consulted leaders in the House and the chair of the Rules Committee. He asked them to hold off on the bill.
In the statement, Teuscher emphasized the “passionate input” he received both in support and in opposition of the bill. With the large response, he felt he could not adequately work through all of the concerns and comments in the 34 days remaining in the session.
During the pause on the bill, Teuscher said he will consult parents, teachers, and students. Additionally, he recommended the bill be studied by the Education Interim Committee.
