IN Senate Bill 266 Gives State/School Parental Power Over Students’ Mental Health from Birth to Age 22 – by Jeannie Georges

Indiana Senate Bill 266: Implement the Plan

When your state takes control of each person’s social, emotional and mental wellness, you’re living in a totalitarian state.

Some believe in the old adage: create the crisis; implement the plan. Others think you should never let a good crisis go to waste. Whatever the belief of the Indiana Senate Education Committee members, they are certainly implementing a dark, evil, socialist plan to control the every thought and behavior of Hoosiers beginning at birth. Yes, it begins at birth. The crisis is school violence and the plan is state control of every behavior and thought. This bill matches well with the Hate Crimes Bill and the elimination of township government and elected officials. – All necessary to roll in totalitarianism.

The education committee has passed Senate Bill 266 without any opposition. This is the bill that is being presented for school safety. Schools might be in some danger, but freedom certainly is in grave danger.

These legislators apparently do not know that most all shootings at schools have been done by people that were highly suspect among peers, known by the teachers as unstable, under medical care and on medications that cause homicidal tendencies. Had the proper legal actions have been taken, there’s a good chance these incidents would never have taken place. Mental assessments of everyone are a poor substitute for taking action when there is an outward sign of a problem. Anomalies should not be made the standard whereby laws are made.

However, should this legislation pass, it will ensure that people will comply with all political correctness. If one doesn’t comply, he will be diagnosed with a mental disorder and treated. Because a mental illness diagnosis may result in one losing their rights as free men, this is a serious issue – an issue that should make every freedom-loving American tremble in fear.

Keep in mind that even with all the mental assessments and data collection, psychology isn’t much better than the average guy on the street at predicting behavior. What psychology does best is explain why things happened – after the fact.

Our legislators have decided that the way to prevent violence is to begin comprehensive mental health services with early intervention and treatment services for individuals from birth through twenty-two years of age. It may be difficult to imagine a newborn being a threat to school safety. But, it’s easier for the state to control their thoughts if they start at birth.

This state-run mental health wellness program doesn’t simply end at age twenty-two. It includes families within these age groups and follows them into the workforce.

There will be a hierarchy of committees (mostly unelected appointees) and entities to oversee the implementation of this state-run health plan to determine the social, emotional, behavioral and mental condition of each person. This will be run for the most part through the schools, but that doesn’t mean one has to be a student. Teachers and others are included.

The state should never be in control to identify, assess or assist emotional or mental health issues. But, SB 266 is one line after another of state-run objectionable practices.

Here are a few:

– There will be routine examinations for mental health.
– The state will assess, measure, track and report everyone’s state of mind.
– Taxpayers will be paying the high cost of prevention and treatment of mental health for all.
– Other entities will be profiting on the collection of every piece of data that can be gleaned.
– The school based mental health services will be integrated into everything – every subject.
– It is experimental.
– It calls for improvement in communication between agencies – meaning the data will be distributed without regard for privacy. (Court orders and warrants won’t be needed.)
– It brings in neuroscience.
– Substance abuse is changed to a mental diagnosis because it is called substance use disorder.

How many will be classified with mental or behavioral disorders? Do you know anyone with phone, gaming, or social media addiction? Know anyone who drinks, smokes, visits alternative web sites? How much is too much and how much is a ”use disorder”?

There is this caveat. A great pupil privacy protection section was part of this bill when it passed through the education committee. Well, except it did not include public schools! It has already been removed from this bill and it is debated whether it could be enforced even if it could be amended back into the bill. At the time of this writing, it is thought that this bill will pass the senate because the governor supports it. It is the responsibility of everyone in the state to contact their state senator and demand a no vote.

Whether we have politicians with mind sets of the fascist or communist, it makes little difference to the subjects who have to live under their control. Readers might want to consider living free while they are permitted to do so.

There are more senate and house bills promoting mental health in schools and funding, including Medicaid. SB 266 may be the worst discovered as of Feb. 15, 2019

Please help spread the word and contact Indiana’s senators and representatives to oppose this. You can find your legislator on the right-hand side of this site. https://www.in.gov/core/legislative-courts.html

To attempt to kill this in the senate: Call the Governor’s office and request that the governor:

1) quit backing it
2) expose it, and
3) not sign it if it passes at the end of this session.

Call Senator Bray’s office and ask him to quit backing it.

    Thank you for exposing this dangerous bill so thoroughly. I have been sending information to the co-sponsors of the bill hoping to open their eyes. I will send them your letter and will contact the Governor. I am not willing to pay for mind control of students and collecting personal information for all to see. Another Constitutional violation!

  2. Charlene Pierson | February 21, 2019 at 9:30 am |

    NO!!!!!!!

  3. Christine Cauffman | February 21, 2019 at 11:39 am |

    Vote no Senate bill 266

  4. Cindy Williams | February 22, 2019 at 9:40 am |

    No. Absolutely not!

  5. Sandra Riegling | February 23, 2019 at 1:11 pm |

    No No No

    This absolutely cannot happen. We will no longer be the same USA. My constitutional rights will not be stripped from me!

  7. I’m not opposed to the new bill, it’s quite obvious that parents, teachers & others are letting some people with mental health issues fall through the cracks. These are often the ones that use violence towards others or are substance abusers. What’s wrong with identifying a possible problem before it becomes a problem?

  8. No no no

  9. Michelle Welch | February 27, 2019 at 2:34 pm |

    No! Vote No to 266

  10. It is extremely inefficient to screen an entire population to find the few needing assistance, rather like finding a needle in a haystack. This bill will further distract teachers from teaching and students from learning by interrupting the regular school day for one more off-mission assignment. Further, it will redirect resources desperately needed for education toward a bureaucratic quagmire. Let schools stick to their mission of education. It’s so tiresome to continue asking schools to be the vehicle to solve every social problem (except the undereducation of our kids!)

  11. I vote No to this bill!!

  12. I would like to know about the financial aspects of this far reaching proposed law. Where are those figures and who winds up on the public dole? The burden to taxpayers is becoming emense. It is time to address issues of bureaucratic creation before the straws eventually breaking the camels back become reality. This sounds like an entirely new, very expensive endeavor with all the “hanger oner” trimmings.
    Sociol aspects involving unintended consequences with bills like this are undetermined. Our society must not be a lab for those promoting sociol engineering. Does lyndon Johnson’s ” Great Society” stir thoughts regarding SB266. What are the real costs of this type of stylishness?

  13. Sandy Roberts 2-27-19 i vote NO ON THIS BILL

  14. Tamara. Absolutely agree. You maje calm and rational sense here. Intervention at an early age is the solution to mental health problems….preventative intervention at an early age has positive outcomes on our emotional health and well being in later life and there is no doubt as research shows will positively impact on society at large for generations to come. I’m afraid many people on this thread are conflating arguments which in my mind is political mischief making. Stick to the issue of understanding issues involved which is essentially to treat our emotional and mental health as we would do our physical. I applaud this move which no doub would evolve our understanding and treatnent of ourselves and others.

  15. Sharol Portee | February 28, 2019 at 7:09 pm |

    No!!

  16. stop SB266 | March 8, 2019 at 4:54 pm |

    For anyone that cares or can attend, there will be a “Meet Your Legislators” meeting at Evansville Central Library Browning room tomorrow 3/9/2019 from 9 to 11 a.m.
    Usually, Venetta Becker attends. She is one of the people promoting SB-266 which will make schools Mental health clinics/diagnosing and determining what “normal” is.
    Have your video camera’s ready and bring as many people as you can.
