ACLU Seeks End To Jail Censorship of Religious Material

ACLU Seeks End To Censorship of Religious Material By Virginia Jail
Ban of Biblical Passages and Other Material Unconstitutional

STAFFORD, Va., July 9 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The American Civil Liberties Union and the ACLU of Virginia today demanded that officials at the Rappahannock Regional Jail immediately end their illegal practice of censoring religious material sent to detainees.

In a letter sent today to the jail's superintendent, Joseph Riggs, Jr., the ACLU asks for jail officials to guarantee in writing that the jail will no longer censor biblical passages from letters written to detainees and to revise the jail's written inmate mail policy to state that letters will not be censored simply because they contain religious material.

This can't be right. The ACLU is anti-religious, and anti-freedom.
