MADISON (WKOW) -- Gov. Scott Walker has signed into law a bill that makes the viewing of pornography on a school district's computer reason to revoke a teacher's license.
Another bill Walker signed Wednesday would require all school workers from custodians to aides to report any suspected child abuse. That's an expansion from current law which required reporting only by teachers, administrators and counselors.
The governor also signed a bill allowing Wisconsin schools to discriminate against convicted felons when considering whether to hire or fire them. Current law allows for employers to discriminate against convicted criminals only if their offense directly relates to the job in question. The new law gives schools the ability to deny an unpardoned felon employment for any reason.
Walker signed the bills in Racine at the Sixteenth Street Community Oriented Policing House.
