On Capitol Hill, Democratic Congressman Mike Honda of California has put forward a bill that would make it easier for parents to block military recruiters from gaining access to their high school-aged children. Honda wants to amend a provision of the No Child Left Behind Act that requires school districts to provide the Pentagon the names, addresses and phone numbers of every student in the school. Honda wants to bar schools from giving out the personal information without the explicit approval of the student’s parents.
