Statement from Rep. Zach Wamp about the Pledge of Allegiance Appeals Court Ruling

 
June 27, 2002

"It's a bad day in America when a court ruling says that because the Pledge of Allegiance has the words 'under God" in it, it is unconstitutional. We need to stand up to say this is constitutional interpretation gone amok. This angers me, it saddens me and it disturbs me greatly"

 

"The legislative branch must fight an over reach by the judicial branch if we are going to have balance and to have the people's will prevail in this country. Pluralism is good as long as we respect the foundation of American society."
