Okay, read what it does, perfectly reasonable: prevents federal funding from going to states and agencies that ban books. While, there most certainly are books out there that I think kids shouldn't be reading, that would be my job as a parent to stop them.
Are there states/agencies that have banned books? Seems like this would do nothing. I know there are schools that have removed books from their curriculum but that's not really the same thing as banning right?

I don’t think it’s a giant problem, right now, but it could be a big issue in the future. I don’t think it addresses the dr. Seuss situation at all.
Btw, that situation was kind of stupid: like companies cancelling their own products leads into higher sales is not a precedent I want to set.
