ACLU blocks Arizona Bible Week proclamation
The American Civil Liberties Union won a temporary restraining order blocking Arizona's National Bible Week proclamation calling it unconstitutional. The ACLU argues proclamations violate church state separation and discriminate against non Christians, while the National Bible Association defends it as a civic reminder to read the Bible.
