Florida students will soon be allowed to deliver “inspirational messages,” which include everything from prayers to manifestos, at mandatory school events.
The Florida House of Representatives just approved SB 98, which permits Florida school districts to allow students to read inspirational messages of their choosing at assemblies and sporting events.
The House approval was overwhelming, with 88 yeas and only 27 nays. It already passed in the Florida Senate on February 1 with 33 yeas and 8 nays.
In order to maintain separation of church and state, the bill holds that school officials are barred from monitoring, approving, or participating in such messages.
