Missouri Reps just zero-lined the budget for public libraries!
Just amazing. As Trump said DURING his initial campaign, 'I love dumb people!' Lots going on here, mostly it's the Morality Police making noise and causing trouble. It still has to go through the Senate, so no telling whether or not it will survive.
Definitely a sea-change in the world of librarianship.

Aghast is definitely a good word for it. Republicans think dumbed-down people are easy to sway to their side, and they may be right. It's just sad to see the desired outcome being an uninformed, low knowledge electorate.
