Wednesday's News Update From KWGS

Wednesday's top stories:

• Fallout from Gov. Stitt's signing of House Bill 1775 continues. The 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre Centennial Commission strongly chastised the governor, who sits on the commission, for signing into law the bill that will prohibit schools from teaching concepts like systemic racism in a way that may cause guilt or discomfort. Tulsa Rep. Monroe Nichols resigned from the commission, citing Stitt's actions and presence on the commission.

• The Oklahoma State Department of Health is preparing for expected federal approval to begin administering the COVID-19 vaccine to children as young as 12.
