re: #32 Decatur Deb
We would need a lizard lawyer to tell if there has been a challenge to this sort of function (Prayer Breakfasts, etc.). The House and Senate even have chaplains, like the military. It might not have been worth anyone’s effort to mount a serious court case.
Madison didn’t want Congress to have chaplains. He thought it went against the Establishment Clause.
But what would he know about that, anyway?
