Texas bill pushes for display of Ten Commandments in schools sparking legal debate

A legislative push in Texas has reignited the debate over the role of religion in public education. At the center of the controversy are bills that would require the display of the Ten Commandments in schools and allow designated time for religious readings. Supporters argue it reinforces America’s moral foundations, while critics warn of constitutional violations. With Texas Republicans largely backing the move and legal challenges looming, the battle over religious influence in public schools is intensifying. The outcome could have lasting implications for the separation of church and state across the US.
