The Reagan Administration and allies in the Senate were attempting to undo the

Supreme Court decision of Engel v. Vitale, which had banned corporate prayer in public schools. Messrs.

JJK: "I keep coming back to minority rights, the rights of the one individual, which you have defended all of your professional life." WFB "I defend the right of the individual against abridgment, but I don't say the way to assert his right is to immobilize the majority."
