Author(s):
Abstract:
Ford describes the constitutionality of legislative invocations. Current law allows public deliberative bodies and legislatures to have clergy-led invocations without violating the Constitution, provided the prayer does not proselytize or advocate a particular religion. Ford analyzes the law's application in different local government situations.
