52. SB 1 - Veasey Amendment (1st Special Session)

Adoption; June 9, 2011; RV #53; Journal Page 340: 44 Yeas, 92 Nays, 3 Present-not-voting

YCT Nay.  Amendment 150 gutted the provisions of Amendment 148 which would have prohibited universities from providing funding, space, or resources for an LGBT or otherwise labeled homosexual resource center. This amendment was a follow-up to the “Traditional Family Values Center” amendment offered on the budget during the regular session but sought to cut to the chase by completely eliminating pro-homosexual political centers from our universities. YCT believes that taxpayer money and mandatory student fees should not be spent on brick and mortar centers which promote a political and social agenda.
