Two concerns.

1. While I am very supportive of protecting religious, racial, and sexual minorities from discrimination, I am not wholly comfortable with the idea of defunding schools for the bad behavior of its administrators.  When ever education funding is cut, it's the students that stand to lose most, and inadequate funding would lower student performance and would not address the root cause of the problem of discrimination.

2. I firmly believe that religious freedom should be enjoyed by students of all faiths.  Christians should be allowed to pray if they desire as should Muslim or Jewish students, and the wearing of religious garb of all kinds (whether it be a cross necklace or a hijab) ought to be permitted in schools.  But I think section 4 does a good job protecting all religious groups as written.

Hearing no objection, the amendment is adopted.

Anything else?

The question is now on the table.  Senators, please vote Aye, Nay, or Abstain.

This has enough votes to pass.  Senators have 24 hours to change their vote.

With four votes in favor, one against, and one abstention, this passes the Atlasian Senate.
