Prayer+In+School+-+McCain

=//“School prayer or a moment of silence should be allowed but not mandated. Education is a civil rights issue. Education reform, including school choice is necessary so every student can be prepared for success in higher education, career and life."//=

John McCain supports prayer in public schools. He voted yes to declare that erecting religious symbols and praying on public school campuses as part of a memorial service does not violate the First Amendment to the Constitution, and to provide legal assistance to any government entity defending such a case. Also, voted yes to cut off federal funds to school districts that deny students their right to constitutionally protected voluntary prayer.
