Louisiana —
FFRF ensured that a post office in Louisiana took down an unconstitutional sign promoting Christianity. A concerned community member informed FFRF that a wooden “JESUS” sign was stationed at the main counter of the Lafayette Post Office. FFRF wrote the post office to remove the symbol immediately.
“United States postal regulations prohibit the display of religious materials, other than stamp art, on postal property,” FFRF Patrick O’Reiley Legal Fellow Hirsh M. Joshi wrote.
Thanks to FFRF’s work, the display was taken down quickly. A letter from the customer service manager, John E. Jordan Jr., reported that, “the wooden ‘JESUS’ sign on the main counter of the Lafayette Post Office, 3603D Ambassador Caffery Parkway, was immediately removed.”
