Ethan DeWitt writes: “Republican New Hampshire Gov. Kelly Ayotte vetoed seven bills July 15, many of which were intended to strengthen parental rights, bucking the conservative wing of her party over hotly contested legislation. One of the most closely watched bills vetoed by Ayotte would have required public schools to adopt complaint procedures to allow parents to object to, and potentially remove, material deemed harmful from schools. In her veto message, Ayotte noted that state law already allows parents to opt their child out of instructional material they object to, as long as they provide an alternative material.”
