Louisiana Mandates Ten Commandments in Public School Classrooms Starting 2025
Jun 19, 2024, 08:06 PM
Louisiana has become the first state in the United States to mandate that the Ten Commandments be displayed in every public school classroom. The legislation, signed into law by Republican Governor Jeff Landry on June 19, requires the commandments to be posted in a large, readable font starting in 2025. This includes classrooms from kindergarten to state-funded universities. This move has reignited debates over the separation of church and state, with opponents questioning the constitutionality of the law and anticipating potential lawsuits. Governor Landry defended the legislation, stating that the Ten Commandments are foundational documents of the state and national government.
