                         CONCURRENT RESOLUTION


 
    Expressing the sense of Congress with respect to the Pledge of 
                              Allegiance.

    Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), 
That it is the sense of Congress that Congress opposes the ruling of a 
Federal appeals court that the Pledge of Allegiance is an 
unconstitutional endorsement of religion and cannot be recited in 
schools, because the Pledge is a deeply embedded symbol of our Nation 
and the freedoms we hold so dear.
