Texas, Ten Commandments and Judge
Digest more
Galveston ISD says it is not reversing its decision to keep Ten Commandments posters out of classrooms, even though the Texas Attorney General has filed a lawsuit. The state sued the district for not following a new law that requires the Ten Commandments to be displayed in every public classroom.
The district was sued earlier this month by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton because it's not complying with Senate Bill 10. Federal judges have blocked 25 other Texas school districts from displaying the commandments,
Paxton filed a lawsuit against the Round Rock and Leander school districts in the 425th District Court of Williamson County for the districts' “open refusal to comply with” Texas' Senate Bill 10. The law is currently enjoined in a number of small school districts because of ongoing litigation.
