Mr. Speaker. this is the time to think of Religious Freedom Week next week. The United States of America is unique in the liberties and opportunities offered to American citizens and immigrants from other nations. For some 200 years our Constitution has guaranteed religious freedom and protected speech. the press. and the right of assembly and petition. Americans must be continually vigilant to protect this precious right. I became more aware of the uniqueness and importance of our freedom as I watch the recent events and conflicts unfolding in Europe and the Middle East. Unlike most other nations. Americans can attend religious services without risk and the State cannot tell us how. or where to praynor can the statewith the exception of some of our Nations schools--forbid us to pray.
