Oklahoma attorney general sues to stop US's first public religious school_我的网站

A |     Oklahoma's Republican Attorney General Gentner Drummond on Friday sued to stop a state board from establishing and funding what would be the nation's first religious public charter school after the board ignored Drummond's warning that it would violate both the state and U.S. constitutions.Drummond filed the lawsuit with the Oklahoma Supreme Court against the Oklahoma Statewide Virtual Charter School Board after three of the board's members this week signed a contract for the St. Isidore of Seville Catholic Virtual Charter School, which is sponsored by the Archdiocese of Oklahoma City.“Make no mistake, if the Catholic Church were permitted to have a public virtual charter school, a reckoning will follow in which this state will be faced with the unprecedented quandary of processing requests to directly fund all petitioning sectarian groups,” the lawsuit states.The school board voted 3-2 in June to approve the Catholic Archdiocese's application to establish the online public charter school, which would be open to students across the state in kindergarten through grade 12. In its application, the Archdiocese said its vision is that the school “participates in the evangelizing mission of the Church and is the privileged environment in which Christian education is carried out.”The approval of a publicly funded religious school is the latest in a series of actions taken by conservative-led states that include efforts to teach the Bible in public schools, and to ban books and lessons about race, sexual orientation and gender identity.Oklahoma's Constitution specifically prohibits the use of public money or property from being used, directly or indirectly, for the use or benefit of any church or system of religion. Nearly 60% of Oklahoma voters rejected a proposal in 2016 to remove that language from the Constitution.A message left Friday with Rebecca Wilkinson, the executive director of the Oklahoma Statewide Virtual Charter School Board, was not immediately returned, although Wilkinson has said previously she wouldn't comment on pending litigation.A group of Oklahoma parents, faith leaders and a public education nonprofit already filed a lawsuit in district court in July seeking to stop St. Isidore from operating as a charter school in Oklahoma. That case is pending.Oklahoma's Republican Gov. Kevin Stitt, who earlier this year signed a bill that would give parents public funds to send their children to private schools, including religious schools, criticized Drummond's lawsuit as a “political stunt.”“AG Drummond seems to lack any firm grasp on the constitutional principle of religious freedom and masks his disdain for the Catholics’ pursuit by obsessing over non-existent schools that don’t neatly align with his religious preference," Stitt said in a statement.Drummond defeated Stitt's hand-picked attorney general in last year's GOP primary and the two Republicans have clashed over Stitt's hostile position toward many Native American tribes in the state.The AG's lawsuit also suggests that the board's vote could put at risk more than $1 billion in federal education dollars that Oklahoma receives that require the state to comply with federal laws that prohibit a publicly funded religious school.“Not only is this an irreparable violation of our individual religious liberty, but it is an unthinkable waste of our tax dollars,” Drummond said in a statement.The National Alliance for Public Charter Schools, a nonprofit organization that supports the public charter school movement, released a statement Friday in support of Drummond's challenge.。    哈登最后和骑士,还是续约了——这几乎可以说是最开始就可以预见的结果,我们所关注的,只是具体续约的时间和金额而已。         根据消息透露,哈登和骑士完成了续约,这位昔日的常规赛MVP,已经同意与克利夫兰骑士签下一份为期三年、总价值9700万美元的续约合同,其中包含2028-2029赛季球员选项以及交易保证金条款。这份合同的具体细节是:2026-2027赛季:3080万美元、2027-2028赛季:3230万美元;2028-2029赛季:3400万美元。然而骑士需要进行一些运作,才能在硬工资帽下容纳詹姆斯-哈登这份合同的薪资。目前,骑士距离硬工资帽还剩2840万美元的空间。我们除了要感慨,哈登在37岁“高龄”的情况下,依旧可以和球队签下为期三年,且年薪在3000万美元以上的肥约的确是不容易,但是更需要弄清这个合同有什么玄妙。         我们需要知道一件事,就是哈登算是主动降薪留队了,这是一定要知晓的。哈登原可执行2026-2027赛季4232万球员选项(其中仅1332万受保障,但即便如此也不会有球队会选择将其买断,所以这个前提几乎可以说完全失效),但是他选择了跳出合同,签下现在的这个合同——那么这意味着他单赛季少拿1000万美元。而且根据NBA的规则,他现在签下的合同也可以远比目前这个数额更大,但是他还是选择了降薪,如果认真算起来的话,他帮助球队腾出的空间,以及少赚的钱,是不应该被忽略的,可见哈登的确是为了要争取一个总冠军,帮助球队补强而付出了较大的代价,这作为一个球员而言,是值得点赞的,更何况还是一位巨星。         其次就是这一份合同的“覆盖”情况相当值得玩味。合同3年9700万为全额保障,逐年递增(第一年3080万,第二年3230万,第三年最高,3400万),从哈登37岁开始覆盖到他39岁,而到那时候势必会进入生涯的衰退期,和现在比不会是同样的水平,对于哈登个人而言,这几乎可以说是他职业生涯最后的大合同了,当时给得很有诚意,甚至锁定了足足三年的时间,生涯总薪资冲到5.11亿(历史第4人),而他的持球能力、得分能力,只要不受伤的话,再怎样衰退,结合目前的情况,他是值得一份3000万以上的合同的,但是这也意味着骑士将自己的薪资空间大部分锁定在了后场双枪以及内线双塔上了——球队也因此而进入到不成功便成仁的状态。         为什么我们说这个合同“大概率”是最后一份?因为他最后一年,是有球员选项的——注意看,是球员选项不是球队选项,这意味着他可以在打完两年之后,结合自己的个人状态以及球队的情况选择是否继续和骑士合作下去(如果说到那时候他还在骑士效力而不是交易走的话),这其实是一个不错的安排,因为哈登到时候如果履行完这个合同,他又老了一年,到时候进入到自由市场的话,他的身价自然不会和现在一样,所以他可以选择跳出合同,然后再签一份更长一些,但是年薪更少一些的合同,一方面让自己的商业曝光度可以持续,另外一方面也延长寿命,甚至赚的更多一些,这种以退为进,真的相当微妙。         既然提到了交易,这个合同还有一个很值得商量的细节,就是合同附加15%交易保证金,骑士若想把他当筹码送走的话,需要额外补偿年薪15%的保证金,而这在某种意义上基本上就和交易否决权无异了,这是对于老将尊严的保障,让骑士不管轻举妄动,让他可以将主动权狠狠地抓在自己的手里而非骑士管理层的手里。

B | 虽然也有人觉得,三年合同且最后一年还是球员选项,是有些过于冒进了,毕竟没有人知道他明年以及两年后的个人状态会是怎样,但对于现在这支骑士来说,他们已经等不及了。如今多了一个沃特森,也是时候走更远了。
