The Ohio Senate has passed a bill that advances parental rights issues, including allowing public school students to be taken off campus during school hours to have religious instruction.

The state's upper chamber passed House Bill 8 on Wednesday in a vote of 24-7, with the Ohio House voting 57-31 to concur with any changes made to the legislation.

HB 8 now goes to Republican Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine, who, upon receiving the bill, has 10 days to decide whether to sign the bill into law or veto it, according to CBS' Columbus affiliate WBNS.

I'm not sure what the law here in Kentucky is, now, but I remember the Catholic kids were bussed to religion classes, from public schools, back when I was in school.
