STATEMENTS FROM GOVERNOR RICK PERRY

“I’m proud that the Fifth Circuit Court has overturned the lower court’s order that banned prayer at a Texas high school graduation. I’m thankful for Attorney General Abbott’s leadership in ensuring the First Amendment, which prohibits governments from interfering with Americans’ rights to freely express their religious beliefs, is protected. Texas will continue to fight for the rights of all those who wish to pray in our state.” “This reprehensible action taken by a federal judge underscores the increasingly inappropriate federal encroachment into the lives of Americans by unconstitutionally banning prayer at a Texas high school graduation. The First Amendment prohibits governments from interfering with Americans’ rights to freely express their religious beliefs, and accordingly the U.S. Supreme Court has maintained that Congress may convene every day with a prayer. I fully support Attorney General Abbott’s efforts to defend the right to pray, and Texas will continue to stand behind all those who wish to pray in our state.”
