MADISON, Wis. -- The Wisconsin Senate passed a bill on Tuesday that would monitor indoor air quality at schools around the state.

The measure, Senate bill 235, was championed by Jeanne and Dick Black, of Darlington, after their 9-year-old daughter Jade became ill from what they said that poor air quality at her school.

They said that Jade was diagnosed with severe mold-induced asthma and suffered headaches, migraines, blurred vision, rashes on her face, stomach aches and nausea while attending Darlington Elementary and Middle School. The symptoms subsided when she transferred to another school under doctor's orders.

The superintendent of Darlington schools said that air testing has been done and no serious issues have been identified.

While some students aren't affected by problems like high levels of mold, carbon dioxide and poor ventilation, other students suffer from symptoms similar to the Blacks' daughter, WISC-TV reported.

The Blacks came to the state Capitol on Tuesday to support the legislation. They said that they backed the bill so as to make sure it didn't happen to other Wisconsin children, WISC-TV reported.

The new bill calls for a task force to oversee new building construction while fixing problems in existing schools.

According to the Wisconsin Education Association Council, 80 schools in the state have air quality problems. They include Chavez and Midvale Elementary in Madison, Edgerton High School, Marshall Elementary School, Webb Middle School in Reedsburg, and Black Earth Elementary in the Wisconsin Heights District. Other districts cited without a specific school listed include Adams-Friendship, Boscobel, Columbus, Cuba City, Monticello, Palmyra-Eagle, Poynette, Rio and Wisconsin Dells, WISC-TV reported.

The measure is now headed to the state Assembly.
