— A federal judge heard arguments at a hearing Monday on whether he should temporarily block a new Louisiana law that requires the Ten Commandments to be displayed in every public school classroom by Jan. 1.
In June, the GOP presidential candidate posted on his social media network: “I LOVE THE TEN COMMANDMENTS IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS, PRIVATE SCHOOLS, AND MANY OTHER PLACES, FOR THAT MATTER.
?”Louisiana’s legislation applies to all public school K-12 and state-funded university classrooms.
Tens of thousands of posters will likely be needed to satisfy the new law since e Louisiana has more than 1,300 public schools.
Louisiana State University has nearly 1,000 classrooms at the Baton Rouge campus alone.
