House Republicans are demanding that a veterans hospital in Austin, Texas, put back a cross display that officials removed from the lobby following complaints that displaying the symbol "somehow" violates the U.S. Constitution. 

Texas Republican Rep. Chip Roy, along with 16 of his GOP colleagues sent a joint letter Monday to Secretary of Veterans Affairs Denis R. McDonough demanding that Central Texas Veterans Health Care System (CTVHCS) immediately return the cross – which bears the emblems of American military branches and the words, "Remember our Veterans" – back to its original display. 

The display is topped by what appears to be a bugle player, likely to represent the playing of "Taps" at military or veteran funerals.
