A bill at the statehouse aims to arm teachers with gun education classes. It's something supporter say could help them respond appropriately if a school shooting were to occur.
According to gun advocates education is key when handling a firearm and a new bill at the statehouse aims to arm teachers with gun education classes.
Lucas authored House bill 1177, which would create a specialized firearm’s safety class that teachers could opt in to taking for free. The 40 hour training class is something Rep Lucas feels is needed due to school shootings which continue to happen across the country. "They are a teacher themselves so they should understand the power of knowledge whether you agree with it or not,"Burge said.
