Ten Commandments

Help Us Place Ten Commandments Posters in Alabama Classrooms!

Beginning January 1, 2027, Alabama public schools will be required to display “Historical Truths” posters featuring the Ten Commandments and excerpts from America’s founding documents in classrooms where history is taught in grades 5–12, as well as in one common area of each school. (Subject to availability of funds for displays. See Alabama Act. 2026-428.)

Each 11″ × 14″ poster is printed on durable indoor vinyl with acrylic grommets in all four corners for easy display. (See approved poster on the right.)

No taxpayer funds may be used to purchase these posters. Eagle Forum of Alabama, ALCAP, and the Alabama Policy Institute are helping to raise the funds needed to print and distribute them to schools across Alabama.

For approximately $6.00, you can help place a poster in an Alabama classroom!

Every dollar donated to this project through either organization will be used solely for the production, distribution, and administration of the Historical Truths Poster Project. Donations are tax-deductible.

Help us put these important historical truths before the next generation of Alabamians!

Display EFA's Historical Truths Poster in Your Home, Church, or Community

Eagle Forum of AL has created our own beautifully designed version of the Historical Truths poster, featuring the Ten Commandments and America’s founding documents. It includes the exact wording from SB99 which was passed by the AL Legislature in 2026. We grant permission to use and display our version of the Historical Truths poster in any public or private setting, including homes, churches, private schools, businesses, and government buildings (except in AL public schools).

It’s available in two sizes: 18×24 and 24×36. Simply copy the link to your preferred size and send it to your local print shop. For an especially elegant presentation, consider having it framed!

(Note: this decorative poster is NOT approved for official display in Alabama public schools.)

We Now Have The Legal Right To Display The Ten Commandments in Government Buildings!

In 2022, the United States Supreme Court, in Kennedy v. Bremerton School District, held that the standard in the 1971 case of Lemon v. Kurtzman was in error. The Court replaced the Lemon test and ordered that the new standard is Kennedy and decisions thereafter are to be made “by reference to historical precedent and understandings”. The Court thus reversed 50 years of rulings under the Lemon test, under which the Ten Commandments and other historical acknowledgment were wrongly removed from public display in Alabama and across the United States.

These two 4-minute YouTube videos inform Americans about the restoration of their religious liberties following the 2022 Coach Kennedy Supreme Court case. These videos encourage viewers to live out their faith openly and joyfully. The rollout has just begun, and the response has been phenomenal. In just the first few weeks, the videos garnered an impressive over 46,000 views. Our target audiences include:

Local school districts
City councils
State and national legislators
