- What Missouri officials didn’t explain about an LGBTQ+ library story time
Missouri Secretary of State Denny Hoskins and State Sen. Rick Brattin criticized a 'rainbow story time' at a Columbia library featuring books about LGBTQ+ themes, threatening to cut funding if the event proceeded. The library held the event, spending $26 on materials, while legal experts clarified that discussing LGBTQ+ topics is not a crime under state law.
