Connecticut bars Nativity display in state Capitol due to 'religious' grounds, lawsuit says

A Connecticut religious liberty group has challenged a state policy after being barred from displaying a Nativity scene in the state Capitol, alleging that officials violated its First Amendment rights by prohibiting the display on grounds it was 'religious'. The group claims this action is discriminatory and restricts their ability to express their faith. A lawsuit has been filed against the state, claiming this restriction infringes upon their constitutional freedoms.
