Enrolled Bill Summary

            House Bill 3420 amends the Education Code to prohibit school district employees from selling or distributing performance-enhancing dietary supplements to students with whom those employees have contact in their job capacities or endorsing or promoting the use of such items by those students, and it makes such a sale, distribution, endorsement, or promotion a Class C misdemeanor.

            The act provides exceptions to this prohibition that allow a district employee to provide or endorse the use of performance-enhancing supplements to the employee's child or to sell or distribute supplements to students as part of off-campus or non-school-related activities that are independent of the employee's school district duties and that do not involve information about or contact with students to which the person has had access as a district employee.
