Ohio Gov. DeWine says he'll sign a bill arming teachers after 24 hours of training
Experts say such an approach isn't a good idea. The strategy's opponents also include teachers groups and the Fraternal Order of Police of Ohio.
Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine is poised to sign a bill on Monday allowing teachers to carry guns in class after 24 hours of training, over opposition from teachers and a police group. Backers say the policy will make schools safer, but critics say that's not the case, citing experts' analysis.
The new law dramatically reduces the amount of training a teacher must undergo before they can carry a gun in a school safety zone. Instead of more than 700 hours of training that's currently required, school states.
