Ten Commandments – In the November 2006 election, a voter initiative made its way to the ballot that would require the City of Boise to place a Ten Commandments monument in a public city park. We organized an opposition to this initiative and it failed in the November election. Our campaign included public speaking appearances and the publication of our op-ed piece in the Idaho Statesman. Also, in 2004 we successfully opposed legislation that would have placed a Ten Commandments monument in the Statehouse. National Day of Prayer – In 2005 we provided assistance to the Idaho Athiests when they were denied use of the Statehouse steps despite the fact that they had properly reserved them under the Governor’s “first come, first serve” policy. The Governor decided that the National Day of Prayer should take priority, even though the request was received after the Athiests’ request. |
