Elk Grove Unified School District v. Newdow

Questions

1. What are the facts in this case?

2. What 1st Amendment rights are being questioned?

3. Issue: Does a school district policy that requires public school teachers to lead willing students in reciting the Pledge of Allegiance with the words “under God” violate the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment?
