Louisiana set to become 1st state requiring 10 Commandments be posted in schools

Louisiana is set to become the first state mandating the display of the Ten Commandments in all publicly funded schools, including colleges and universities.

Similar legislative attempts in states like Texas, South Carolina, and Utah have not succeeded.

The movement gained momentum after Supreme Court rulings, such as Kennedy v. Bremerton School District, suggested a more lenient interpretation of the Constitution’s Establishment Clause.

Despite a 1980 Supreme Court decision deeming such a requirement unconstitutional in Kentucky, Louisiana’s bill HB71, authored by Rep. Dodie Horton, mandates that the Ten Commandments be prominently displayed on posters no smaller than 11 by 14 inches.

Sen. Royce Duplessis was the sole opponent during the bill’s discussion, arguing that religious teachings belong in church and warning of potential costly legal challenges, Axios reported.
