On the recordOctober 4, 2001
After September 11, America turned to prayer. Churches, community groups, colleges, all of America prayed for the victims, their families, and our great Nation. Once again, when in crisis, America turns to prayer and turns to God. Yet, America has banned God from our schools. Shame. A nation that bans God from our schools is a nation that invites the devil. I yield back our right of religious freedom and urge this Congress to take whatever steps and means are necessary to invite and allow God back into our schoolrooms.
