In response to the U.S. Air Force Academy’s unilateral decision to make the phrase, ‘so help me God’ of the Cadet Honor Oath optional, I introduced H.R. 3416, a bill that would require congressional approval prior to any change to Oaths of Office.

We are the land of the free because of the brave. Many people don’t know this, but when you survive a near-death experience you realize that the only thing you had to hold on to was your faith in God.
