Freedom From Religion Foundation sued by Oklahoma Super. of Pub. Instruction, challenging the very essence FFRF

* Freedom From Religion Foundation taken to court by a public official — a move that challenges the very essence of their work. …” Oklahoma Superintendent of Public Instruction Ryan Walters and the Oklahoma State Department of Education are currently suing the Freedom From Religion Foundation in federal court because we contacted several Oklahoma public schools on behalf of parents over our constitutional concerns.” Notably, Walters’ lawsuit fails to identify any actual violation of law. That’s because FFRF has not violated the law — in fact, we’ve worked diligently to uphold the First Amendment itself”. https://ffrf.org/news/releases/ffrf-co-presidents-op-ed-defines-stakes-of-ryan-walters-lawsuit/
