Missouri HB2417 establishes the "Parents' Bill of Rights of 2026" to protect parental rights in education.

Missouri HB2417 establishes the "Parents' Bill of Rights of 2026" to safeguard parental rights in education. This includes the right to review curricula, books, and other instructional materials, access student records, and object to diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives. Parents can also request information about their child's teachers, data collection, and safety incidents. Denial of these rights allows for complaints to be filed with the prosecuting attorney, who can seek injunctive relief in court.
