Senate Resolution No. 107, introduced by the State Affairs Committee, expresses the Idaho Senate's support for the longstanding tradition of beginning legislative sessions with an official time of prayer. The resolution highlights the historical significance of prayer in American legislative practices, tracing its roots back to the First Continental Congress in 1774 and the Constitutional Convention in 1787. It cites various Founding Fathers, including John Adams and Benjamin Franklin, who advocated for prayer during deliberations, as well as the establishment of daily prayers in the first United States Congress.

The resolution emphasizes that this practice has been affirmed by the Supreme Court, which recognizes the importance of prayer in legislative settings as part of American societal fabric. It concludes by reaffirming the Idaho Senate's commitment to this tradition by observing an official time of prayer each day during the Regular Session, thereby aligning with the historical and constitutional precedents set by the nation’s founders.
