Louisiana Defends Ten Commandments Classroom Law
News summary

Louisiana officials are defending a new law mandating the display of the Ten Commandments in public school classrooms, which has faced a lawsuit from the ACLU and parents who argue it violates the First Amendment. Attorney General Liz Murrill has requested a federal court to dismiss the lawsuit, claiming it is premature since no displays have yet been implemented. Governor Jeff Landry supports the law, arguing it reflects historical significance rather than solely religious intent, and emphasized that majority rule should be respected in democratic values. Murrill presented examples of posters intended to comply with constitutional standards, featuring notable figures alongside the Ten Commandments. A federal judge has temporarily delayed the law's implementation until at least November while the lawsuit is ongoing. The ACLU argues that the law infringes on the separation of church and state, although they have not yet commented on the latest developments.
