Occurrences
That's why she voted to pass the Parents Bill of Rights and will continue to support parents in this ongoing effort for transparency and a seat at the table as we prepare the next generation for success.
Evidence
Roll Call 141 shows Erin Houchin (R-IN) voted Aye on H. Res. 1224, the rule that provided for consideration of H.R. 2616, the Stopping Indoctrination and Protecting Kids Act, which the House later passed to increase transparency in K-12 schools and strengthen parents' rights.
Houchin said, 'Parents, teachers, and students deserve better' and that she 'will continue to fight to get it across the finish line' after her Science of Reading Act advanced out of committee.
Assessments
Houchin promised continued support for parents' transparency rights and parental involvement in education, not necessarily enactment of a final federal law. In her current House term, she voted to advance consideration of H.R. 2616, a school-transparency and parents' rights bill, and separately advanced education legislation while publicly committing to keep working on it. Those actions are direct federal legislative support consistent with the promise, so the support-oriented commitment is fulfilled in the same term even if the broader policy agenda has not become final law.
