Thanked Sgt. Bush for an email response, then objected to the invitation to stand for the invocation, saying it divides the community and could act as a religious test; asked the council to stop asking people to stand.

Went further than Aslesen, arguing the invocation itself is unconstitutional, asking the council to end it and to have the city attorney research the question.
