Issue 641 – Federal Branches

Praying for Our Leaders in Government

Executive Branch: Pray for the President and his Administration

President Joe Biden held a closed-door meeting with a group of Muslim leaders on Tuesday evening. He then hosted a small breaking of the fast, prayer, and iftar with senior Muslim administration staffers to observe the end of Ramadan.

Pray for the president and his administration as they make decisions regarding what events and holidays to observe and commemorate.

Legislative Branch: Pray for Senators and Representatives in Congress

Some members of the Senate have endorsed Representative Dan Goldman of New York’s the “Codifying SAVE Plan Act.” The legislation would ensure that future governing officials would be unable to overturn President Biden’s federal student debt repayment plan.

Pray for members of both chambers of Congress as they determine what issues to address through bills and acts.


PRAY FOR CONGRESSIONAL COMMITTEES

The House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, chaired by Representative Sam Graves of Missouri, and Committee on Homeland Security’s Subcommittee on Transportation and Maritime Security, chaired by Representative Carlos Gimenez of Florida, are holding a joint field hearing in Florida titled “Port Safety, Security, and Infrastructure Investment.”

Pray for members of committees as they look for ways to protect the nation’s physical and cyber infrastructure.

Judicial Branch: Pray for Supreme Court Justices and Federal Judges

A district court judge ruled that the president’s administration went too far when it updated regulations for banking loan services. The Federal Reserve, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and Office of the Comptroller of the Currency sought to expand the geographic area bank branch locations are required to serve, since there are fewer physical bank locations and more banking is now done online.

For district and appellate court judges to be discerning as they rule on the authority of the executive branch according to the Constitution.
