Two state lawmakers and a top Indiana official want to completely pull state funding from Indiana University.
The issue is that IU has not severed ties with the Kinsey Institute that is housed on the Bloomington campus.
The Kinsey Institute is the premier research center on human sexuality and has been criticized for years for the work that conservatives say has contributed to more liberal sexual morals.
State Comptroller Elise Nieshalla and state Representatives Lorissa Sweet and Craig Haggard will speak at a press conference this week on calls to defund IU.

If they want to follow the left ideals then take their money and let them figure it out on their own. Stop teaching this nonsense.

Free speech is essential. Studying sexual behavior is science. It’s ignorant to reject science.

Free speech is essential in a democracy. Indiana legislators want to eliminate speech that they don’t agree with. that’s a characteristic of a totalitarian society. What’s wrong with studying sexual behavior? It’s science.
