And I think there's two things to think about here.
voice-verified
We don't really know the damage done by this suspension for a month on international students.
voice-verified
We're already seeing a brain drain.
voice-verified
There already are professors and scholars from Yale University moving to Canada because they fear for their own safety.
voice-verified
Professors who studied the history of fascism and are seeing the warning signs and are getting the heck out of Dodge.
voice-verified
So we don't know the harm that's already been done.
voice-verified
by scholars from other countries saying, we're just not going to go to the United States anymore.
voice-verified
We're not going to contribute to them.
voice-verified
And when you look at the number of Fortune 500 companies, nearly half of them are either founded by an immigrant or the child of an immigrant.
voice-verified
So it is devastating to our economic and global prosperity by banning immigrants, one.
voice-verified

voice-verified
to a federal court ruling to back up what they're doing.
voice-verified
Harvard has been the tip of the spear on this one.
voice-verified

voice-verified
And now other universities can ride that wave and say, no, we will not capitulate.
voice-verified
We will not comply with your absurd admissions restrictions or your DEI requirements or your admissions requirements.
voice-verified
We will continue to function on justice and merit the way academia is supposed to be all this time.
voice-verified
Thankfully, and, you know, Louisiana ranks 46th in education.
voice-verified
So my recommendation to the Louisiana State Legislature is maybe invest more money in actual education, not on trying to indoctrinate children.
voice-verified
Look, I say this as a person who believes in the Ten Commandments, who teaches my children the Ten Commandments.
