During floor debate on Wednesday, the Texas House recommitted a Senate Ten Commandments mandate to the House public education committee.

Senate Bill 10 would require that public schools accept and display donated posters of the Ten Commandments in all classrooms and would give school districts the ability to spend public school funding to buy and display those posters.

This is a developing story. It will be updated with more information.
