LegalText: 171 -> 11,221. Titles 12-54 await a clean OLRC retry.

(b) Chaplains shall not be required to perform any rite, ritual, or ceremony, and employees shall not be required to receive such rite, ritual, or ceremony, if doing so would compromise the conscience, moral principles, or religious beliefs of such chaplain or employees or the chaplains endorsing agency or organization.
