AREA – Introduced into the Indiana House of Representatives on Jan. 16, House Bill 1028 would allow grants to be used to obtain specialized firearms safety, education, and training curriculum for teachers, school staff members, and school employees. If passed, the Indiana Code concerning public safety, IC 5-2-10.1-2, would be amended with a section that would “increase school safety by: (A) helping teachers, school staff, and school employees acquire specialized firearms instruction; and (B) defraying tuition related expenses for teachers, school staff, and school employees who are approved by a charter school, nonpublic school, or school corporation to enroll in the course of specialized firearms instruction described in IC 10-21-2.” Read the full details about HB 1028 in Wednesday's edition of The Pilot News!
