Mass. Senate Approves Anti-Bullying Legislation
Boston
The Massachusetts Senate unanimously backed an anti-bullying bill Thursday, spurred on by the recent suicides of two students whose family and friends said had been tormented by their classmates.
The bill would prohibit bullying at schools and clamp down on so-called cyberbullying by prohibiting the use of e-mails, text messages, Internet postings and other electronic means to create a hostile school environment.
The bill would also require school principals to report bullies to police if the principal believes criminal charges could be pursued.
