Editorial: Epilepsy Drug Bill ‘Matter of Common Sense’
An Inland Valley Daily Bulletin editorial argues that a bill (SB 161) by Sen. Bob Huff (R-Diamond Bar) that would allow school districts to train nonmedical school employees to administer epilepsy medication to students in emergencies "is a matter of common sense." Huff introduced similar legislation last year, but the bill was blocked in the Senate Appropriations Committee because of opposition from the California Teachers Association and the California Nurses Association.
