Rep. Sodrel: Allow 'Jesus' in the House
Friday, Feb. 24, 2006 12:44 a.m. EST

Rep. Mike Sodrel, R-Ind., has introduced legislation to counteract a recent federal court ruling that prohibited individual legislators and religious ministers invited to lead prayer in the Indiana House of Representatives from making any reference to Jesus or Christianity.

The decision in Hinrichs v. Bosma, said Sodrel "imperils the foundation principles of our representative republic.

"If federal courts can regulate any speech of the members of a legislative body," he continued, "then those courts can regulate all speech."
