A Texas school district has reversed its decision to remove the Bible from school libraries, a decision it made as part of its efforts to comply with a new Texas law banning “sexually explicit” material in schools.

In a statement sent to TV station KAMR Local 4 News, the Canyon Independent School District (CISD) said that following the passage of House Bill 900, it “conducted a comprehensive review of library materials to ensure compliance with updated state guidelines.”
