Christian Employers Score Major Win

The pro-life and pro-family business community scored a major legal victory after the Christian Employers Alliance (CEA) reached a monumental agreement with the Trump Administration’s Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and the federal court granted a stay in CEA’s lawsuit challenging the EEOC’s approach to the Pregnant Workers Fairness Act (PWFA) and Title VII.

Dunkerley “Strongly Opposes” BA Mosque

Update: The Broken Arrow City Council rejected a proposal Monday to build a facility identified as a Mosque, not on religious grounds, but because it did not fit the comprehensive area plan for the city.

In a statement Monday morning Tulsa County Commissioner Kelly Dunkerley asserted his strong opposition to a proposed development in Broken Arrow.

Last Wednesday night, the entirety of our school (students and parents) received an email from Broken Arrow Public Schools Superintendent, Chuck Perry, outlining changes for Vanguard Academy. The email, claims to, “create greater flexibility and encourage more pathway-aligned coursework,” by implementing several changes to the curriculum. These changes, the district promises, will allow for more rigorous coursework and advanced classes, and will not negatively affect Vanguard in any way.

This was discovered to be incorrect only a few moments later, as the news spread.
