Tennessee state GOP lawmaker says getting rid of higher education would 'save America'

https://thehill.com/homenews/state-watch/460632-tennessee-state-gop-lawmaker-says-getting-rid-of-higher-education-would

State Sen. Kerry Roberts made the remarks while speaking on his conservative talk radio show. He addressed his problems with the higher education system while discussing a recent legislative hearing focused on abortion legislation.

Roberts argued that an activist's public testimony in favor of abortion rights was a "product of higher education," adding that abolishing the system would "save America."
