Lexington Democrat Reggie Thomas said the two groups should have a role in the decision-making process at the state level.
Those constituencies ought to be represented and their voices ought to be heard because they have the most at stake when we talk about education, he said.
What the bill does mandate is proportional political and minority representation, along with generally equal gender membership, on the panel. ....
