Ohio: “Sign Slip-Up: Ohio Town Was Right To Remove Christian Marquee Message”
Americans United for Separation of Church and State has posted this:
The mayor of Avon, Ohio, posted the message “Remember Christ is in Christmas” on a marquee outside city hall on Dec. 15 . . .
The Cleveland Chapter of Americans United wrote a letter to Zuber reminding him of just that. Their letter protested the sign for being a First Amendment violation as well as disrespectful to minority faiths in the community. They asked for the message to come down . . .
City Council President Greg Zilka and at-large Councilman Martin O’Donnell, as well as the city’s law director, recommended that the sign come down . . . Zuber finally agreed to change the message to simply “Remember.” . . .
