Rep. Mary Miller, an Illinois Republican, said in a post on X that a Sikh chaplain should "never have been allowed" to lead prayer in Congress.

Giani Surinder Singh, who was incorrectly identified by Rep. Mary Miller as Muslim, was invited by Republican Rep. Jeff Van Drew to lead the prayer.

Republican Rep. Mary Miller is facing bipartisan criticism over a now-deleted social media post in which she called it “deeply troubling” that a Sikh delivered the morning prayer on the US House floor.
