Oklahoma lawmakers are apparently taking a similar approach to book banning as the Texas legislature took to abortion. Earlier his month, State Senator Rob Standridge presented Senate Bill 1142 to the legislature, which reads that:
— Read the restNo public school district, public charter school, or public school library shall maintain in its inventory or promote books that make as their primary subject the study of sex, sexual preferences, sexual activity, sexual perversion, sex-based classifications, sexual identity, or gender identity or books that are of a sexual nature that a reasonable parent or legal guardian would want to know of or approve of prior to their child being exposed to it.
