Louisiana Ten Commandments law faces lawsuit
Ten Commandments lawsuit Louisiana

CIVIL rights groups in the United States have filed a lawsuit to block Louisiana’s “unconstitutional” new law that requires the 10 Commandments to be displayed in the classrooms of every government-run school.

Pupils’ parents with various religious backgrounds are plaintiffs in the case, represented by the groups’ attorneys.

Under the legislation, school classrooms and state-funded universities must display a poster-sized version of the 10 Commandments in a “large, easily readable font.”
