Multiple bills passed the Senate and will move on to the house, including bills regarding display of the Ten Commandments in schools and the existence of diversity, equity and inclusion offices within public universities.
The State Senate sent it to the House Thursday night, sparking another discussion about separation of church and state.
The Republican controlled Senate pushed through several conservative bills that sparked an evening of contentious debates. The debates were monitored by Scott Braddock with the Quorum Report. One of the hottest issues was SB 17. It requires all state universities to shutdown diversity, equity and inclusion offices. Republicans, like bill sponsor Sen. Brandon Creighton , claim the programs push extreme liberal beliefs.
