KY Repugs Have No Budget, Just a Mandatory Day of Prayer for Students
Also no gun laws. No pension fix. No tax reform.
Just the most grossly unconstitutional gambit by a bunch of freakazoids that specialize in unconstitutional bullshit.
There should be some kind of fine these assholes have to pay for pulling this shit, wasting taxpayers' money and time.
From the Herald:
An annual day of prayer for Kentucky’s students at school would become state law under a bill passed Thursday in the House.How about this? Every time a bill gets overturned in the courts by a lawsuit, the bill's sponsors, NOT the taxpayers of the Commonwealth, have to pay all the legal bills and courts costs of both sides, plus a six-figure fine to the ACLU, Freedom from Religion Foundation, NAACP, American Atheists, Fairness Campaign or whatever civil rights organization won the case.
But Amber Duke, a spokeswoman for ACLU Kentucky told the Herald-Leader Friday that if the bill passes the Senate and is signed into law, “it should be made clear to our public schools that they should not be in the business of endorsing religious practices in violation of students’ constitutional rights.”
“The content of the bill doesn’t mandate prayer, but as we’ve seen time and time again in the Commonwealth when it comes to religion and schools, what is intended by the General Assembly can be lost in translation when it reaches the local school level,” Duke said.
