‘Tebow Bill’ Defeated By Republican-Led Education Committee – UPDATED

I’ve got a call in to Delegate Gordon C. Helsel’s office to ask why he was the lone Republican who killed the homeschool-friendly “Tebow Bill” that has been carried by Delegate Rob Bell for years.

The bill finally made its way past the Senate and through the entire General Assembly the past three years only to be vetoed by Democratic Governor Terry McAuliffe, but at least it made it that far. This time, to have it spiked by a Republican before even making its way out of the House Education Committee, is disheartening and raises a number of questions.

The homeschool community thanks Del. Bell for once again carrying a bill that is obviously threatening to Democrats (who are usually against it because of the Virginia Education Association) and at least one Republican. I’ll be back with more when I hear from Del. Helsel’s office.

UPDATE 1/29/2018, 5pm: I reached out to Del. Rob Bell about this morning’s defeat of his “Tebow Bill.”

His response: “I am very disappointed. This version of the bill would be local option — each County would be able to make its own decision about whether to allow home schoolers to participate in inter-school competitions. (Schools already can do this for school activities like classes and plays — and many like Albemarle already do.)”

If you would like to thank Del. Bell for his hard work year after year only to see this bill defeated or vetoed by the Governor as it was the past three years, you can email him at: [email protected]
