College Recruitment for the Military Protection Bill

[Yates]

I have a few problems with this bill.

To begin with, I do not believe that the government should be able to create a regulation such as this for private universities.  This bill makes no distinction between private and public universities.

Also, universities are usually regulated by states.  I do not believe that we, being at the federal level, should create these regulations.

I, therefore, lean in opposition of this bill.

Right now, I think I support this act. Univeristies and colleges that are publically funded must also be subject to relevant government programs. I don't think it is fair that a public institution should bar public servants from doing their business on their grounds.

This is quite true.  However, this act makes no distinction between public and private universities.

It mentions "funded by the state". I take this as meaning it is referring to public institutions.

Quite true.

Senator MasterJedi mentioned that some private universities may receive state funding, however.

I am undecided on this bill.

Aye.

I am relieved that there is now an even clearer distinction between public and private universities.
