Republican lawmaker calls for formal attorney general opinion
SUMMARY: Oklahoma State Superintendent Ryan Walters plans to use over $3 million from the payroll budget of the Department of Education to purchase 55,000 Bibles for public schools, mirroring a version endorsed by former President Trump. This has prompted State Representative Mark McBride to request an opinion from Attorney General Gettner Drummond on the legality of this action, as it seems to violate a law preventing agencies from reallocating funds in such a manner. McBride criticized Walters’ approach as dictatorial, expressing concern over the imposed nature of these changes and calling for a thorough investigation into the Department’s actions.
