(The Center Square) — In a split with fellow Republicans, New Hampshire Gov Kelly Ayotte vetoed a bill Tuesday that would have authorized parent-led efforts to ban books and other “inappropriate materials” from the state’s public schools and libraries.
The legislation, which passed the GOP-controlled state Legislature earlier this year, called for creating a new process for banning books in New Hampshire schools by allowing parents and other individuals to file complaints challenging specific titles in libraries they believe are inappropriate.
