Introduced

Summary

Condemns a National Cathedral sermon as political activism. This bill would express the sense of the House that the sermon delivered by the Right Reverend Mariann Edgar Budde at the National Prayer Service on January 21, 2025, was a display of political activism and would formally condemn her "distorted message." It describes the National Prayer Service as a longstanding tradition of public prayer for the President and Vice President and notes that President Donald J. Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance took part. The resolution states Budde used her position inappropriately by promoting political bias instead of advocating the full counsel of biblical teaching.
