Earlier this week, the MAGA governor of Louisiana, Jeff Landry, signed a bill into law
that requires the Ten Commandments to be prominently displayed in every public
school classroom in the state, from kindergarten to college.
The law is a blatant violation of the United States Constitution and the
founding principle of separation of church and state.
That’s intentional. Just a few days earlier — at a Republican Party fundraising
event in another state — Landry said “I can’t wait to be sued.”
Reactionary forces in this country have succeeded in shifting the bounds of
discourse and debate to the point where they believe they can get away with
this.
Please join me in what should be — but, sadly, is not — an unnecessary
statement: [[link removed]]
Requiring the Ten Commandments to be displayed in public school classrooms is
unconstitutional, bigoted, and antithetical to what our nation is supposed to
be. We stand together against this outrageous violation of the basic principle
of separation of church and state.
