🚨 100 Percent of the IL Republican Senators Voted for the SB 1560 mandiating Mental Health Screenings along with the Democrats 🚨
Governor Pritzker has now signed SB 1560 into law, requiring annual mental health screenings for Illinois students in grades 3 through 12.
What many voters and parents do not know is that this bill passed the Senate back on April 11, 2025 with every single Republican senator voting YES. This bill was passed with a unamious vote! 😡
This bill: *Provides no opt-in safeguard for parents *Makes screenings automatic unless parents know to opt out *Allows schools to screen students without notifying parents beforehand.
This unanimous Republican support came just weeks after the Homeschool Act was defeated in March, when citizens spoke out against government interference in the parent child relationship. So the question, did that experience even make them hesitate in their vote???
At the federal level, Illinois Congresswoman Mary Miller is cosponsoring the Parents Opt In Protection Act, which requires parental consent before students face sensitive screenings. Why did Illinois Republicans not demand the same protections here at home?
For more information on an opt-out form, I will post a link to @Awake_IL and the forms they have available.
How about mental health screenings for the teachers and staff?
NEW FORM for SCHOOL MENTAL HEALTH SCREENING OPT OUT added to the opt out bundle at awakeil.com/forms
This isn’t about mental health for students. Chicago is proof that Illinois has no concern about the welfare of students.
This is a Soviet Union type of gathering info on the parents to find if they think the “right” way.
