FFRF has Ky. courthouse remove Christian display (September 2023)

FFRF was able to get the Grayson County Courthouse in Kentucky to remove a proselytizing sign from its walls.

A concerned Grayson County citizen reported that a large display reading “In God We Trust/Pray for America” was recently added to the outside of the courthouse. FFRF took action by writing a letter of complaint to the county judge-executive.

“Displaying a religious message on public property raises serious constitutional concerns,” FFRF Anne Nicol Gaylor Legal Fellow Sammi Lawrence wrote. “The Establishment Clause prohibits government sponsorship of religious messages.”

The complainant contacted FFRF and said the display had been removed.
