"President Donald J. Trump applauds the House for passing H.R. 4909, the STOP School Violence Act of 2018, an important step towards keeping American students safe," the White House said in a statement. "This legislation helps protect our nation's youth and educators."
The measure aims to prevent future attacks by helping to identify signs of potential violence through TRAINING and COORDINATION between SCHOOLS and LAW ENFORCEMENT. It would also address mental health issues and PROVIDE FUNDING to install locks and METAL DETECTORS.
The funding would be distributed to states through grant money over 10 years.
While the bill received overwhelming support in the House, 407-10, the measure now heads to the Senate.
I first suggested this as an obvious solution after the attack on the First Baptist Church Sutherland Springs and since then many churches have heeded the call to do one or both, and have encouraged their congregants that are Law Enforcement to carry into services as “plain clothes.”
Please continue to pray the most sane and affordable way to protect students may quickly become reality. Thank you in Jesus’ Name.
