Board to Vote on Criminal Trespass Warrant Policy

📅 Scheduled Action

The board will vote on the length of time for a Criminal Trespass Warrant. While this can be a tool for school safety, vague or overly broad policies have been used in other districts to intimidate or silence parents who speak out at board meetings.

Response

DEMAND THE DETAILS: Contact the Mart ISD board (see the Official Agenda link for contact info) before the meeting. Ask for the proposed policy language for Item IV.A to be posted online. ‘Please clarify if this new Criminal Trespass Warrant policy includes safeguards to prevent it from being used against parents peacefully exercising their First Amendment rights at board meetings.’

💰 Impact: Chilled Public Speech
