Senator Reid releases statement on controversial Mosque in New York

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) office released a statement on the proposed Mosque in New York a few minutes ago, says he believes in the 1st Amendment, but thinks Mosque should be built elsewhere.

Senator Reid’s statement:


"The First Amendment protects freedom of religion," spokesman Jim Manley said in a statement. "Sen. Reid respects that but thinks that the mosque should be built some place else. If the Republicans are being sincere, they would help us pass this long overdue bill to help the first responders whose health and livelihoods have been devastated because of their bravery on 911, rather than continuing to block this much-needed legislation."
