San Antonio judge temporarily blocks Texas’ Ten Commandments rule in 11 school districts
A federal judge in San Antonio has temporarily blocked nearly a dozen school districts from implementing a Texas law requiring all public campuses to display the Ten Commandments in classrooms so that they're constantly visible to all students. Sixteen parents of various religious backgrounds filed a federal lawsuit to halt 11 school districts from implementing the rule, which was scheduled to go into effect Sept. 1. The parents — represented by the American Civil Liberties Union of Texas and other religious freedom groups — maintain the state's requirement violates both the First Amendment's Establishment Clause and Free Exercise Clause.
