ACLU sues after Christian woman forced to remove headscarf for driver’s license photo

The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) is suing Alabama officials after a Christian woman was forced to remove her headscarf for a driver’s license photo. The woman was told that only Muslim women are allowed to keep their heads covered.
