I don't know what the answer is to the problems associated with tenure, but this is clearly just a Republican effort to censor and fire people who disagree with their ideology. If anything, tenure needs to be strengthened. And the path to tenure needs to be less political and less dependent on whether or not the candidate's ideology is in line with what the institution's or state's establishment thinks.

Tenure is not the problem. Limiting tenure to professors who don't offend their colleagues is the problem. DeSantis's new bill does not resolve this problem, and it introduces new ones.
