Student Religious Liberties Act establishment
This bill prohibits Minnesota public schools from discriminating against students based on religious expression. It requires schools to treat religious viewpoints equally in assignments (like homework or artwork), allow religious clubs equal access to facilities as other student groups, and adopt policies with disclaimers stating the school doesn’t endorse student religious speech at public events. The law applies to all public school districts and covers classroom work, after-school activities, and school events where students speak publicly. Schools must evaluate student work using standard academic criteria, not religious content.
