Georgia passes bill requiring all public schools to install weapons detection systems, becoming the first state to mandate them statewide.
The Georgia House has passed a bill requiring all public schools to install weapons detection systems at entrances, making Georgia the first state to mandate such measures statewide.
Sponsored by House Majority Leader Chuck Efstration, the legislation aims to boost student safety and allows districts flexibility in choosing technology, with one year to comply.
The bill passed 151 to 11 and now moves to the Senate, where it faces scrutiny over funding and potential budget impacts.
While some lawmakers support it as a necessary step, others warn of financial strain and emphasize that detection systems alone won’t solve deeper issues like gun access.
Georgia aprueba un proyecto de ley que exige que todas las escuelas públicas instalen sistemas de detección de armas, convirtiéndose en el primer estado en exigirlos en todo el estado.
