By advancing House Bill 1086, Indiana lawmakers have now joined multiple Republican-led state legislatures that have sought to display the Ten Commandments in government buildings, courtrooms and classrooms. The bill initially required all classrooms and school libraries to display the Ten Commandments. Rep. Michelle Davis, R-Whiteland, said her legislation would classify the Ten Commandments as a protected document in Indiana. Still, states with mandates to display the Ten Commandments have largely been struck down on constitutional grounds. Bill advances despite religious freedom concerns.”
