Bill > SB544

This bill, known as the Creation of Law in Our Schools Act, requires all public school districts and charter schools in Pennsylvania to display four specific historical documents in every school building occupied by students: The Ten Commandments, the Declaration of Independence, the United States Constitution, and the Constitution of Pennsylvania. The purpose appears to be to expose students to foundational legal and historical documents that have influenced the development of law and government in the United States. The bill mandates that school boards and charter school administrators ensure these documents are visibly displayed, and the requirement will go into effect 60 days after the bill's passage. By requiring the display of these documents, the bill aims to provide students with a visual reminder of key historical texts that have shaped the legal and political foundations of the United States and Pennsylvania.
