NC House slams ACLU's position on prayers

RALEIGH -- Republican leaders in the state House of Representatives said Friday that they're reviewing a complaint by a civil liberties group about prayers in the General Assembly but that they believe the group is out of touch with the concerns of North Carolina residents.

House Speaker Thom Tillis and Majority Leader Paul Stam both said they'll consider the concerns raised in the letter sent Thursday by the state chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union, but neither lawmaker thinks there's much to the group's contention that prayers at sessions of the legislature violate the First Amendment.

"The ACLU has an affinity for pushing a radical, far-left agenda that is out of touch with most North Carolinians," Tillis said in a statement.
