Constitutional Objections to Good Friday Government Closings in Wisconsin

Beloit, Edgerton and Rock County, Wisconsin all closed some of their public offices on Good Friday this year. The Freedom From Religion Foundation is sending letters to each governmental entity challenging the constitutionality of recognizing Good Friday as an official holiday. In response to these objections, some of the governmental units are making changes to their policies, reports the Janesville GazetteXtra today.
