This week in Inside the Statehouse our Director, Jessica Fraser, explains House Bill 1191 which deals with land and contracts. Jessica also talks about Senate Bill 223 which would require high school students to file the FASFA allowing for more lower-income kids to receive the benefits of pell grants and scholarships. She also talks about the National Association of Social Workers' Day at the Statehouse. Jessica introduces our new grassroots fellow Tia.
Our Senior Policy Analysts, Erin Macey, talks about the missed opportunity to enact pregnancy accommodations legislation at the State level. However, the coalition has transformed lemons into lemonade by taking the support for pregnancy accommodation to the Federal level. Erin also gives us an update on Senate Bill 395 which we nicknamed 36% on all the wrong places. Also, we share some of the coping mechanisms that we are employing to make it through this 2020 session.
