Candy Noble, Texas State Representative of the 89th district (R) | https://votecandynoble.com/
More specifically, the official text was summarized by the state legislature as ’’Relating to the display of the Ten Commandments in public school classrooms’’.
The following is our breakdown, based on the actual bill text, and may include interpretation to clarify its provisions.
The bill mandates that public elementary and secondary schools display a durable poster or framed copy of the Ten Commandments in each classroom. These displays must be at least 16 inches wide and 20 inches tall and legible to someone with average vision from anywhere in the classroom. If a school does not already have the displays, it must accept privately donated ones that meet these specifications and display them as required. Schools may purchase the displays using district funds but are not required to do so. This requirement is not subject to exemption and applies from the 2025-26 school year onward. The act takes immediate effect if it receives a two-thirds majority vote in both legislative houses; otherwise, it becomes effective on Sept. 1, 2025.

Noble graduated from Hardin-Simmons University.
