Alabama Senate Passes Proposed Amendment to Allow Ten Commandments Displays

The Alabama Senate, Thursday, passed a proposed constitutional amendment to allow Ten Commandments displays on state property and in public schools.  The Bill by Senator Gerald Dial, now moves to the House of Representatives – and, if at least 63 of 105 House members approve it, it will go to voters for a referendum. 

The bill stated Ten Commandments displays in public schools or on public property would be in a manner that complies with constitutional requirements including, but not limited to, being intermingled with historical or educational items, or both, in a larger display.  The bill also includes a prohibition against using public funds to defend the constitutionality of that amendment in court.
