Discriminatory Groups Have to be Funded, Says Virginia House

the virginia csn is now about to consider a bill that that will require your uh... student fees and universities to find that student groups they're allowed to discriminate against other earnhardt members of society and members of the university in general beverage in your house of delegates already voted to pass this bill in eighty to nineteen eighty one six one seven out like i said earlier waiting invite religious or political university student groups discriminate as they please and still require the camp is to provide them funding in access to campus facilities specifically that would be bad for algae bt students operative because they're particularly mumbled technical terrible twos termination it because it most universities have non-discrimination policies but under this lobby universities protections for *** orientation are not enforceable that's because of stateline virginia so this means alginate seasons will be pretty good or evil even a k_k_k_ chapter could hypothetically for music industry sources and openly discriminate against non-white non-christian students on campus yes so i i think that they'll still be seeing those important when here but obviously there's a potential racial and in this political discrimination like this is explicitly language is sort of weird that uh... in pursuit of the religious or political mission of our organization all the person's committed to that mission which some sort of religious synonym terminology anyway should conduct activities like involving outdoor positions doctrines like disputes between members and stuff like that and so it seems the ridiculous that we joke about the k_k_k_ using this but that's the political organization like their political goals right and we've seen before maybe not specifically the k_k_k_ but white groups have then working to form groups on cuban and trying to get student fees so maybe they can take a seemed a little at me and extract the fact is wasting groups and later to general are so incredibly prevalent even know most people aren't aware of that is the kind of and applying under the radar but so the fact that coordination with what you use supply legislation to promote their con is not completely is not so i'm kind of as you might think ah... and so they're they're couple things on the cover one obviously uh... though and the reason that people i think have a problem with this is that we we talk with us in the republic of herschel speaker coming to campus or something like that is that if this organization start-up business only christians can be part of this and we're gonna get school funding going trips and everything everybody at the university is paying for that with their student fees but will not have access to those resources uh... all-white organization or an all black or hispanic organization for instance will be able to band members that are not going on the part of that i know that like usually job but that people say was always a complex in union yet it universally allows non-blacks tends to be part of it as well and can benefit from their at their like events that they can not only are you gonna discarded skirts they discriminate against a certain types of scenes from joining that they can also or camp is relatives in activities and things like that but not actively discriminate and take messages against different types of minorities like racial minorities algae bt numbers things like that so a definition of joining but it's also an issue about the tapes above then they can hold that will actively promote even more discrimination that's it uh... all the votes against it as you probably can guess were from democrats but i love that but there there are major problems of universities in this country and uh... virginia's tackling first on component of the problems we have that their enshrined in discrimination in the long that that's what they want and the thing is i know that we were so we're talking about the k_k_k_ racial stuff i know this is almost entirely is about religion is about christian organization to be able to discriminate on christians they define what that you can be involved in christian group off-campus let whatever we talk about creationism in the classroom in elementary schools in prayer and spin class is the fact that it's likely forget that they're allowed to be religious when they're not on campus when they're not you know in first period french or whatever why two things that i want to say about this in mind that is obviously there are a very good reasons that university have non-discrimination policies in their university constitutions and that is to make all of their students feel welcome on-campus now the reason the that conservatives who want to argue against that is because they say that non-discrimination policies allow for quote hostility colours meaning that students with opposing views from that group will infiltrates and assume power in the organization not only has this it never actually happen but there's no i think there's not even any evidence to suggest about plausible the second i want to point out is thinking lenient indeed find higher education and ranging in particular or a local last year and a bit decrease their funding for higher education by fifteen percent so here is that there in your state government is going to the site in decreased funding fourth universities it no longer get to say you know what those universities are required and not required to do this to be completely up to the university and if it's the is going to do you find that it's it's higher education facilities there is a capsule in the mail relations it is safe and what that university that has to be a sorry affectionate *** something that you said their points they made about the hostile takeovers which is sort of ridiculous with the idea that is that they don't want people uh... coming in with different he is and sort of the the mission of the organization of the time the composition of the organization so we should be over time which is what you imagine organizations are supposed to do like if people come in and they have the points that the members like they will get into leadership positions and stuff like that uh... i think that that does happen i don't think about that i think that's not hostile takeover things like if that's what's driving this very actually too did what sort of dictatorial powers to the print leadership to force out any members who might become popular and change the organization overtime well i think what they're doing is that there should be at let's say they plan to do this in religious terms let's say you have i'm not like a christian group and then at some sort of like double worshiping work they don't want the members haven't done a working group to comment and state all while were going to miss this ethically tried and i like this group and take it down i just found that some of the members of the groups that have different opinions and econ popular but that much of this does happen all the time and do you think that's a good thing but they're saying hello that this other group is going to come in andaman nightly take down the group out of me out of hand anger which like i said that doesn't happen some for at least very rarely happens there's no proof that it's been happening there's no evidence that it might happen but i do agree with you it's just the general population start to have differing opinions i think we see in politics and government then whatever because it might be supporting new should be in power yeah i think i think there are less actually worried about statements coming in taking over organization and more like liberal christians coming in and taking over there was a has made things a couple their they are not not in a different view on the different but then the people pushing for the summer camp and it's ridiculous i don't know that it would be necessary i don't know what the state constitutions one another the unconstitutional it'll be interesting to see if this does pass the good thing
