Beshear vetoed the bill with a veto letter saying, "Senate Bill 1 tries to police classroom discussions on topics such as race. These are discussions our children are having with or without adults in our schools. Prescribing a rigid approach to what must be 'taught' in those discussions will lessen if not erase them."

SB1 states in part that public schools shall provide instructions that align with certain concepts including: "An individual, by virtue of the individual's race or sex, does not bear responsibility for actions committed by other members of the same race or sex;" and "The understanding that the institution of slavery and post-Civil War laws enforcing racial segregation and discrimination were contrary to the fundamental American promise of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, as expressed in the Declaration of Independence, but that defining racial disparities solely on the legacy of this institution is destructive to the unification of our nation."

In his letter, Beshear said that children and adults must be able to exercise their First Amendment rights and have important discussions free of government censorship.

It's hard to believe that anyone would support laws dictating that teachers may not discuss certain subjects in classrooms. Does the legislature have enough votes to override the veto?

Republicans run the KY legislature, they can overturn all his vetoes. He also vetoed a bill that disallowed transgender men to compete in sports in grades 6-12. They expect the legislature will overturn that one next week

It appears that you approve of discrimination and censorship. Why am I not surprised?

So, would you be good with a bill that mandated gun safety courses--to include range time--in high school say, in your state?

Probably don't live in his State, nor your's, but I would say no, most homes don't possess a weapon, nor want one, so why should that majority take one when they have no need for it, especially children

"Men posing as women" is not the same as being a transgender person, dumbass. Lia Thomas would be one example. I agree that they were retarded for allowing him in woman's swimming competition.

Lia was in transition and was getting hormone treatment. She was between.
