Retaining the Practice of Flag-folding Ceremonies for Veterans Funerals. After fighting
for and successfully reversing a decision by Veterans Affairs to strip God from flag-folding ceremonies, Members of the Prayer Caucus are moving to permanently secure religious freedom for families of veterans by supporting H.R.2586, which seeks to prohibit the Secretary of Veterans’ Affairs from authorizing honor guards to participate in funerals of veterans interred in national cemeteries unless the honor guards may offer families the option of having the honor guard perform the 13-fold flag recitation. This bill is currently before the Committee on Veterans’ Affairs.
