Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin said the monument of the Ten Commandments will stay on Capitol property for the time being, despite the state’s highest court ruling it must go.
The Tulsa World said both Fallin and Attorney General Scott Pruitt have asked the Oklahoma Supreme Court to reconsider its ruling against the presence of the monument on the government parcel of land.
“Quite simply, the Oklahoma Supreme Court got it wrong,” Pruitt said, in a statement reported by Fox News. “The court completely ignored the profound historical impact of the Ten Commandments on the foundation of Western law.”
The American Civil Liberties Union sued and won its plea to remove the monument last week, when the court ruled 7-2 its presence violated the state’s constitution.
