Silencing Prayer Before City Meetings
 

Silencing Prayer Before City Meetings

Published January 26th, 2012

It's a time honored tradition at government meetings from congress to city hall... opening public meetings with a prayer.
However, a federal court ruling has sharpened the definition of what can be prayed, and what can't.
In High Springs, some people want to make sure that's enforced to the letter of the law.
