Jordan will also launch an online petition effort for the community to demonstrate its support of DeWeese's courtroom display. Last week, the ACLU filed a district court motion against Judge DeWeese based on his courtroom display. Jordan's petition supports Judge DeWeese's right to display the poster and calls upon the ACLU to drop its legal action. The statement and signing will coincide with a 10:00 AM radio appearance with WMAN-AM's Rusty Cates. Area media are welcome to cover Jordan at the announcement.
