Oklahoma Schools Face Controversy Over Mandatory Prayer Video

Oklahoma State Superintendent Ryan Walters has instructed schools to show a video where he criticizes the "radical left" and "woke teachers unions" for attacking religious liberty, and invites students to pray for Donald Trump. Some school districts have refused to comply, citing local authority over curriculum decisions. The Oklahoma Attorney General's Office stated that Walters lacks the statutory authority to mandate the video, emphasizing parents' rights and local control.
