CNN —Oklahoma is soliciting bids for Bible suppliers to provide their wares for the state’s education department – and the specific requirements fit Bibles endorsed by former President Donald Trump.
The RFP requirements also say that the Bibles must have the Old and New Testaments, and include copies of the US Constitution.
The Bibles sell for $60 online and, through his endorsement, the former president receives some of the proceeds, according to Oklahoma Watch.
The RFP from superintendent Ryan Walters is part of his ongoing push to put Bibles in every classroom.
In a statement, Oklahoma State Department of Education Director of Communications Dan Isett said the RFP was consistent with the “norms of state procurement.
