Oregon Legislature About to Repeal Statute Barring Wearing of Religious Dress by Public School Teachers

Eugene Volokh writes at the Volokh Conspiracy: . . . Prof. Howard Friedman (Religion Clause) reports that, “According to the Oregonian, yesterday by a vote of 21–9 Oregon’s state Senate approved House Bill 3686 repealing an 87-year old ban on teachers wearing religious dress in the classroom…. The state House of Representatives has already passed the bill, but it now goes back to the House because of two changes in wording made by the Senate.” . . .
