// "INCUMBENT SENATOR SPONSORS DIXIE NAME CHANGE PROCESS BILL"

Our current State Senator sponsored the bill that started the process to changed the name of Dixie State University. He ignored the polls that showed most of the people in this area and in the state wanted to keep the name. The incumbent ignored the voice of his constituents who overwhelmingly opposed the change. He gave in to political correctness and woke ideology. Check out the links on this page to hear the Senate debate and see how he voted on the bill. Here is who voted for the legislation.
