Monumental days in Washington D.C. with the U.S. Supreme Court holding hearings on the constitutionality of the Nationalized Health Care Act, also known as Obamacare. 

On Friday of this past week, thousands of religious leaders and Americans took to the streets at federal buildings across the country, opposing the unconstitutional mandates of the HHS mandate on Catholic hospitals, universities, and religious institutions, forcing them by penalty of law to provide abortion services, abortifacients, and birth control, conflicting with their personal right and conscience, in violation of the First Amendement. 

H.R. 2070, The D-Day Landing Prayer Act which will include FDR’s D-Day Landing Prayer in its entirety in a plaque or inscription at the WWII Memorial in Washington, D.C. passed the House of Representatives by a Vote of 386-26 The bill now moves to the U.S. Senate for hearings.

OCA President Chris Long stated, “This legislation received broad bipartisan support and is worthy of the Senate quickly taking up the measure and presenting it to President Obama for his signature.  The vast majority of WWII veterans and their families support this initiative.  Many of these brave men, now in their ‘80s and ‘90s, remember clearly President Roosevelt praying with the nation the morning of the D-Day landings.  It is only fitting that this wonderful historical presidential prayer be added to the WWII Memorial, honoring those brave men and women who served our country in WWII. 

President Roosevelt’s prayer articulated the great crusade that was underway to liberate millions suffering under tyranny. He honored the war effort and paid respect to the fallen and those veterans who fought courageously in the conflict.  It is fitting that succeeding generations learn of this prayer that was offered at that most poignant moment in our nation’s history.”

We commend Congressman Bill Johnson of Ohio’s 6^th District and the Congressional co-sponsors of this historic legislation. 

We therefore urge members of the U.S. Senate to follow the example of their Congressional counterparts and support the FDR D-Day Prayer Act and pass this legislation that will allow its inclusion at the WWII Memorial in Washington, D.C.
