Rejected “Indian Names” Bill In CA Public Schools

Sponsored by:

The Assembly has rejected a bill that would bar California public schools from using Indian names as their mascots unless they have permission from a nearby tribe.

The measure went down to defeat on a roll call vote of 37-to-31.

Opponents labeled the bill trivial.
