Gov Nuisance, aka Gov Gruesome, wanna be candidate for president signed a bill to make it harder to suspend pocs from school for misbehavior, because pocs for some reason get suspended. Gee I wonder why. https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240SB274 (e) Removing the opportunity for a pupil to be suspended from school for a behavior deemed willfully defiant has a disproportionately beneficial impact on Black pupils. According to a publication from the California School Board Association, California’s **Black pupils** are suspended at a far higher rate than their peers. (f) Research confirms that **pupils of color,** pupils who are homeless, pupils with disabilities, pupils in foster care, and LGBTQIA+ pupils are more likely to be suspended for behavior deemed to be a willfully defiant offense even when harmless. (g) A 2018 study conducted by professors from the University of California, Los Angeles, and San Diego State University shows willful defiance suspensions represent 15 percent of all suspensions in grades 4 to 12, inclusive, and 21 percent in grades 7 and 8, among **Black male pupils.**
