JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. • A Missouri judge has blocked a law restricting Internet communications between teachers and students from taking effect Sunday.
Meanwhile, Gov. Jay Nixon said today that he will ask the legislature during a special session beginning Sept. 6 to repeal specific provisions included in law, which passed unanimously earlier this year. Nixon also said he will seek input from parents and classroom teachers.
Cole County Circuit Judge Jon Beetem issued a preliminary injunction against the law Friday, calling it a staggering prohibition of free speech rights.
