The Texas House has passed Senate Bill 10, which requires the display of the Ten Commandments in every public-school classroom across the state.
The bill passed by a vote of 82–46, with several Democrats joining Republicans in support.
It now returns to the Senate for final approval before being sent to Governor Greg Abbott, who is expected to sign it into law.
The legislation would take effect on September 1th, aligning with the start of the new school year.
Under the bill, schools must post a version of the Ten Commandments taken from the King James Bible, matching the text used on the monument outside the Texas State Capitol.
“The wording won’t need to be subject to a new court case objection,” said Rep. Candy Noble (R-Lucas), the bill’s sponsor in the House.
“This monument and the words on it have already been approved and upheld by the Supreme Court in a 2005 case.”

Noble emphasized the historical importance of the Ten Commandments in American education.
“Nothing is more deep-rooted in the fabric of our American tradition of education than the Ten Commandments,” she said.
“The very way we treat others in our society comes from the principles found in the Ten Commandments.”

Instilling good values and morals in children is essential. The Ten Commandments offer foundational principles that help guide young minds to become respectful, responsible, and productive members of society. #txlege pic.twitter.com/nUBigz6mW7— Texas House Republican Caucus (@TXGOPCaucus) May 25, 2025
During the debate, lawmakers rejected a series of Democratic amendments aimed at altering or weakening the bill.
Republicansargue that recent Supreme Court rulings, including the 2022 decision in Kennedy v. Bremerton School District, reinforce the legal foundation for its implementation.
The legislation forms part of a broader push by Texas lawmakers to bring traditional principles back into the public education system.
If signed into law, Texas will become the second state in the country to require the Ten Commandments to be posted in every public-school classroom after Louisana passed similar legislation last year.
