A federal court just declared the Ten Commandments monument at the Arkansas State Capitol as unconstitutional.
This is a win for religious freedom and for the fundamental protection that government must stay neutral when it comes to religion. No one should feel like an outsider in their own state because of what they believe — or don’t believe.
Today's decision is the latest in a long line of history and constitutional law to ensure the First Amendment protects all of us.
BREAKING: A federal court has permanently blocked Arkansas’s Ten Commandments classroom display law, ruling it violates the First Amendment.
Public schools cannot promote or impose religious doctrine on students. Today’s decision affirms a core constitutional principle: the government must remain neutral on matters of faith, and every student deserves to learn in a classroom free from religious coercion. #arpx #arnews
