Dr. Bentley and HB 42 (Teacher Tenure Bill)

Brian over at Flashpoint blog has the full explanation as to what happened on HB 42.

His conculsion:

The real take away, no matter how poorly the AP reports on the matter, is that Robert Bentley voted in favor of a tenure “reform” bill that directly led to a teacher being paid while sitting in prison.  Bradley Byrne fought the bill.  It’s really pretty simple.

For the record, I agree with Brian that it was a bad vote. I don't care if every Republican in the legislature voted for it, it was still a bad vote. Dr. Bentley saying it was a 96-0 vote is his version of, "but everyone else was doing it..."
