I didn't find any such proposed bill but there is this:

"While the Obama Administration and Congress continue to spend hundreds of billions of dollars in Iraq and Afghanistan, legislators continue to dismantle our public services, parks, and educational programs due to budget shortfalls. In Utah, state Sen. Chris Buttars proposed one way of dealing with a budget shortfall: just eliminate the 12th grade. It is not clear why legislators have decided to keep public education at all. If we simply eliminate education, we can send children directly into military training or to work for foreign companies from countries that are expanding their research and educational budgets at the same rate of our decline.

"Buttars suggested that 12th grade is really not that important and most kids are ready for the workforce or life at 17. The move would save $60 million out of the $700 million shortfall in the state's budget."

Of course, Utah State Senator Buttars is also the guy who - in response to a senator speaking of what he called the 'ugly baby' syndrome where Solomon proposed that the baby be cut in half and each putative mother get one half - said:

Senator, this baby is black. I tell you that it's a dark, ugly thing."
