YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

A federal appeals court has upheld a Texas law requiring the display of the Ten Commandments in every public school classroom in the state.

The Fifth Circuit judges ruled 9-8 that the Texas law does not violate the First Amendment to the Constitution — either in its prohibition of government-established religion or its protection for the free exercise, or non-exercise, of religion. The ACLU and other organizations representing the plaintiffs challenging the Texas law say they anticipate asking the Supreme Court to reverse the Fifth Circuit’s ruling.
