Idaho Bills

States findings of the House of Representatives commemorating the 2025 session with an official time of prayer.

This is a resolution to honor the historic heritage that prayer has played in America's rise as a new country. It outlines the traditional role both at the Federal and State level of government. Prayer was relied upon every step of the way. As an example of our Founders commitment to prayer in September of 1787, when they gathered to write the United States Constitution, elder statesman Benjamin Franklin moved that "prayers imploring the assistance of Heaven, and its blessings on our deliberations, be held in this assembly every morning before we proceed to business." In Idaho, we honor this heritage and tradition by continuing it.
