We all understand that compromise is part of the legislative process, yet at the same time, I would submit that wilderness is not for sale.

Wilderness is not defined by the absence of certain activities, but rather by the presence of certain unique and invaluable characteristics.

For hundreds of millions of Americans who believe in God, prayer is our bridge between Earth and Heaven, our way of opening our hearts to the Lord. Through this intimate relationship we find peace and guidance.

I believe that the Framers of the Constitution made their intent clear when they wrote the First Amendment. I believe they wanted to keep the new government from endorsing one religion over another, not erase the public consciousness or common faith.

A free people, free to believe as we wish, free to speak our minds, free to raise our children as we see fit, will, make no mistake about it, endure.

Today we thank God for all the blessings He has bestowed upon this great country and ask him to continue to heal our land and meet our needs and we do so through the power of prayer.

Peace will be when you accept it in your heart.
