BATON ROUGE, La. (WAFB) – Louisiana State Attorney General Liz Murrill said she will soon publish guidance on how schools can comply with the state’s Ten Commandments law.
Murrill said the law requires classrooms to “reflect certain displays” of the Ten Commandments.
The law’s implementation deadline is January 1, 2025.
Murrill released the following statement.
A federal judge in the middle district court ruled in November that the Ten Commandments law is unconstitutional.
Murrill has said the judge’s ruling only applied to the five school districts named in the lawsuit challenging the law. Those school districts are in East Baton Rouge Parish, Livingston Parish, St. Tammany Parish, Orleans Parish, and Vernon Parish.
