State and local education leaders doubled down on their commitment to racial equity Tuesday, during an hours-long legislative committee meeting about critical race theory.
Addressing the Interim Joint Education Committee remotely, Kentucky Commissioner of Education Jason Glass blasted the bills as “educator gag and student censorship bills.”
“Laws like these are increasingly the tools of some of the most authoritarian regimes in the world, and the fact that the Kentucky legislature is now considering them, and has called this special meeting on them, should cause us all to pause and consider our next move carefully and how history will judge all of us,” he said.
