Senator Lee Schoenbeck, prime sponsor of Senate Bill 45

This segment originally aired on "In the Moment" on SDPB Radio.

The South Dakota Board of Regents is required to publish an annual report on intellectual diversity and the free exchange of ideas at state educational institutions. That requirement passed the Legislature last year.

A new bill, Senate Bill 45, would repeal that requirement. Listen to the debate behind it.
