They should have other priorities.

This is also the same state involved in the "Trump Bible" story.

According to the article, Oklahoma is ranked almost last in education.

In July, WalletHub found Oklahoma ranked 50th out of 51 states (when including Washington D.C.) in public education. Only New Mexico ranked further behind the Sooner State. Criteria used to determine rankings included "test scores, graduation rates, school safety and bullying rates."
