SALEM, Ore. (AP) — The Oregon Legislature is looking at ways to curb cyberbullying.

The Senate Education and Workforce Development Committee will hold a public hearing Tuesday on a bill that would require school employees to report acts of harassment, intimidation, bullying or cyberbullying.

Employees who don’t report would be subject to remedial actions.

The measure would also require schools to create a mechanism for students or others to anonymously report acts of harassment or bullying. It would require schools to report criminal violations to police.
