Missouri lawmakers will hear invited testimony Monday afternoon in Jefferson City on critical race theory and the 1619 project.
The Joint Committee on Education is a committee comprised of state senators and representatives. They’ll hear invited testimony at 1, but will also accept written testimony.
The committee is chaired by State Sen. Cindy O’Laughlin (R-Shelbina).
Two mid-Missouri lawmakers serve on the joint committee: State Reps. Chuck Basye (R-Rocheport) and Ed Lewis (R-Moberly).
Representative Basye joined “Wake Up Columbia” live this morning on the Eagle. He says CRT supporters will be testifying at today’s hearing.
