From: Oklahoma Governor J Kevin Stitt

Governor Kevin Stitt today applauded State Superintendent Ryan Walters for executing his duties at the State Department of Education and proposing amendments to Title 210, Chapter 35, Subchapter 3 of the Oklahoma Administrative Code. This rule change would ban pornographic material from all public schools in the state of Oklahoma.

"This is common sense," said Governor Stitt. "Parents don't want their tax dollars paying for pornographic material to be available to their kids' in school. I urge my colleagues in the legislature to swiftly approve this rule and keep inappropriate, pornographic material out of our public schools."

Stitt added: "I fully support Superintendent Walters and appreciate his tenacity to protect our students and stand with parents."
