AUSTIN – A “mock nativity” scene placed in the Texas State Capitol by the Freedom From Religion Foundation was removed Tuesday after Gov. Greg Abbott urged the State Preservation Board to take it down.

Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick said in a statement he supported the order to remove it, stating it violated “the State Preservation Board's regulations for Capitol displays and purposefully mocks the religious beliefs of others.”
