And so not only do I feel a kinship, I feel an obligation and a duty to help.

  • I am committed to the First Amendment principles of religious freedom, tolerance, and diversity. Whether Mormon, Methodist, Jewish, or Muslim, Americans should be able to participate in their constitutional free exercise of religion.

Lord God, let us never hesitate or play the coward.
