Two congressional Republicans want to end, once and for all, the attempts of atheist groups and others to remove religious symbols from war memorials.

Rep. Duncan Hunter of California and Sen. Richard Burr of North Carolina on Thursday introduced the “War Memorial Protection Act,” which they say will create a “foundation in federal law” for public veterans’ and war memorials that include crosses or similar items.

“It is our duty to honor our veterans and their families, and American military memorials around the world stand as testaments to their sacrifice,” Mr. Burr said in a statement. “Many of our men and women in uniform have strong religious convictions, often finding that their faith has played a role in their service. This bill would recognize their beliefs by ensuring that religious symbols, regardless of affiliation, are allowed to be part of military memorials.”

Thank goodness for some of our republican leaders that try to maintain our heritage & freedoms while the democrats are determined to tear it all down in the name of progress.

That such a bill is necessary is a sad comment on how far our culture has been infested by Cultural Marxism.

Why is it the only time the GOP acts is over matters of symbolism ? Last time I looked, they were in the process of giving up my guns.
