First Liberty
This could be a defining moment for the future of religious freedom.
In 1980, the Supreme Court ruled in Stone v. Graham that a Kentucky
law requiring the Ten Commandments to be displayed in classrooms
violated the Establishment Clause of the Constitution.
As a result, Ten Commandments displays in schools all over the country
were removed.
Thankfully, two First Liberty cases recently decided by the Supreme
Court have reset the law of land.
And now, state legislatures all over the country are writing and
passing new laws to bring back religious displays that have historical
significance, including the Ten Commandments.
Just this month, the Texas Senate passed legislation that requires the
posting of the Ten Commandments in school classrooms.
Watch this short video with First Liberty's Matt Krause who
testified before the Texas Senate in favor of the proposed bill.

Scrubbing all religious expression from the public eye is not only
discriminatory and untruthful, but it also undermines the very
principles of freedom upon which our country is based.
The truth is religious expression in the public square has always
played an integral part of the history and traditions of our country.
The freedoms you and I enjoy, the ones provided by the Constitution,
rely on the public displays of foundational documents like the Ten
Commandments. They serve as a constant reminder of the freedoms we
hold dear and must work to protect.
Thankfully, these displays are starting to return to public squares
all across the country.
Last year, Louisianna became the first state to require the Ten
Commandments to be posted in classrooms.
And this would not have been possible without God's favor and
supporters like you.
You stood with us in the fights that saved the Bladensburg Cross and
preserved Coach Kennedy's right to pray after high school games.
But these cases did more than that.
They overturned 50 years of bad legal precedent and opened the door to
bring faith-based displays like the Ten Commandments back to our
hometowns.
That's why I am asking you to take the next step to bring
expressions of faith back to your state and your community. Simply go
to our Restoring Faith in America website to learn how you can get
involved.
