Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick is strongly pushing the two proposals, saying that "allowing the Ten Commandments and prayer back into our public schools is one step we can take to make sure that all Texans have the right to freely express their sincerely held beliefs."
JDFI applauds the Texas Senate for passing the bills and strongly urges the Texas House to do the same. When school prayer and Bible reading were banned by the Supreme Court in 1962, American education began a 60-year decline that has put American education in crisis. Restoring Judeo/Christian values to the classroom will begin the long road back.
