Ryan Walters is looking for 55,000 Bibles, and he is seeking $60 donations for each of them. Walters, who is Oklahoma’s state superintendent of public instruction, has made national headlines for his efforts to get Bibles into the hands of public school kids in his state.

After state officials earlier this week rejected his request for $3 million to buy the Bibles, Walters launched a fundraising campaign to buy copies endorsed by President Donald Trump, with the help of country singer Lee Greenwood.

Walters and Greenwood teamed up to launch a “Bibles for Oklahoma” campaign to purchase copies of Greenwood’s “God Bless the USA Bible,” which will then be donated to schools.
