Three Cal. Churches Sue State's Singing Ban; Claim Banning Church Music Is Unconst. Abuse of Power

Three evangelical churches in California sued Gov. Gavin Newsom for banning singing and chanting in places of worship, while permitting such activities elsewhere, the Christian Headlines website reports today (July 20, 2020).

The complaint was filed in federal district court by the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) and two other legal groups.

"Banning singing in California churches is an unconstitutional abuse of power," said Jordan Sekulow, executive director of ACLJ.

The plaintiffs argue that the singing ban "specifically and discriminatorily targets places of worship."
