IT'S CALLED ALYSSA'S LAW - NAMED AFTER ONE OF 17 STUDENTS KILLED IN THE PARKLAND FLORIDA SCHOOL SHOOTING. ALYSSA'S MOTHER HAS SINCE BECOME A NATIONWIDE ADVOCATE URGING BETTER SCHOOL SAFETY LEGISLATION. OHIO LAWMAKERS JOINED 19 OTHER STATES INTRODUCING ALYSSA'S LAW, ALSO NOW CALLED SENATE BILL 105. IT WOULD DO THREE THINGS:
