Texas Ten Commandments law upheld

The landmark ruling by the 5th Circuit is a significant victory for Christian conservatives who have long advocated for religious doctrine in public education.

The decision upholds Senate Bill 10, which mandates that schools display donated posters of the Ten Commandments in every classroom.

Opponents of the law argue it violates the Establishment Clause of the U.S. Constitution and have vowed to appeal the case to the Supreme Court.

This ruling sets the stage for a major national legal battle over the role of religion in American public life.
