Bill overview
The Keeping All Students Safe Act aims to prevent and reduce the use of potentially harmful restraint practices in schools. It prohibits seclusion, mechanical restraint, chemical restraint, and dangerous physical restraint, specifically those that restrict breathing or blood flow. The bill also requires states to develop plans to monitor and enforce these prohibitions, including training for school personnel and reporting on restraint incidents. It seeks to ensure safer environments for students by promoting positive behavioral interventions and supports instead of relying on restrictive measures.
