Proposed anti-bullying laws receive strong support in Massachusetts
Massachusetts legislators are set to act on a series of bills aimed at preventing bullying in schools. While earlier, similar efforts have failed, support is growing after recent bullying incidents. The latest proposals -- which include a measure to mandate school reporting of all bullying incidents to the state -- have widespread support among such groups as the Anti-Defamation League, the Massachusetts Teachers Association, the Massachusetts Chiefs of Police Association and Microsoft.
