Tom Cotton is pushing a bill to end funding for campuses which disrespect the First Amendment, like Stanford Law where a Trump judge was shouted down.
school and you can’t tolerate hearing the other side of an argument and you can’t meet it with counterarguments but rather meet it with shouts and heckling, then you’ve probably gone into the wrong line of work,” the Senator said of the Stanford debacle.
It requires public universities to have policies consistent with the First Amendment and threatens to withhold federal funds if a school’s policies run afoul of free speech. “The free speech zones on campus are usually relegated to the waste management treatment center in some corner of the campus where there’s never any foot traffic,” the senator joked.Cotton’s proposal would require private schools to clearly disclose their campus speech policies both to students and the Department of Education as a condition for receiving federal funding.
Senator Cotton is joined by nine fellow sponsors of the bill, including Mitch McConnell, Rick Scott, and Marco Rubio. All are Republicans, who are a minority in the Senate.
