Democrat Jay Inslee signed the bill into law during a press conference on Monday.<\/p>\n<p>The measure bans the use of Native American themed names, symbols and images as school mascots unless received approval from a tribal government. The legislation also creates a grant program to help cover some of the costs for new names and imagery that may come as schools will be required to replace their mascots ahead of the upcoming school year.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis bill will end the disrespectful use of Native American imagery in our public schools, thanks Representative Lekanoff as the prime sponsor of this bill,\u201d Gov. Inslee stated while signing the bill.<\/p>\n<p>The legislation is slated to take effect in the coming school year and will affect most public schools in the state.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/rep-dan-crenshaw-gives-update-on-eye-recovery-2\/\"> Rep.
