"The Constitution of the U.S. forbids everything like an establishment of a national religion. The Law appointing Chaplains establishes a religious worship for the national representatives, to be performed by Ministers of religion, elected by a majority of them; and these are to be paid out of the national taxes. Does not this involve the principle of a national establishment, applicable to a provision for a religious worship for the Constitution as well as of the representative Body, approved by the majority, and conducted by Ministers of religion paid by the entire nation?"
—James Madison, protesting the creation of Congressional chaplains at taxpayer expense.
