A bill aimed at undercutting acceptance of evolution in Florida science classes, which kicked up a fuss but didn’t pass in the Florida Legislature last year, apparently is going nowhere this year.
A Senate version of the bill has yet to receive a committee hearing and has no companion bill in the House.
That means, said one proponent of the idea, that the bill has little chance of passage in this frantic session, heavily devoted to cutting and balancing the state budget.
“With no companion in the House, it doesn’t have much likelihood,” said Rep. Alan Hays, R-Umatilla.
Florida Citizens for Science has been on the case in that state.
Texas Freedom Network has been following similar legislation in Texas.

That’s great! I’m glad at least one state advocates teaching both the recognized strengths and weaknesses of ALL theories that are taught in public classrooms!!!!
