    It doesn’t matter if this will only hit 1 or 2 people per year. If it gets implemented in one state it’ll spread to elsewhere. Putting it in a state where the least resistance will occur first is perfect for then spreading it elsewhere, PragerU will be pointing to the “success” in this state when their lobbying brings it forward to other states. They will spread conservative control of educational personnel this way. Controlling personnel will enable controlling education itself.

    They will slice the onion.
