What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, the state superintendent of public instruction may revoke

a license issued by the state superintendent for immoral conduct on the part of a

licensee. This bill specifies that it is immoral conduct for a licensee to help a school

employee, contractor, or agent obtain a new job if the licensee knows or has reason

to believe that the school employee, contractor, or agent has committed a sex offense

and the victim was a minor or a pupil. This bill also prohibits a school board,

governing body of a private school, and operator of a charter school from helping a

school employee, contractor, or agent obtain a new job if the school board, governing

body, or operator knows or has reason to believe that the school employee, contractor,

or agent has committed a sex offense and the victim was a minor or a pupil.
