Attacks on “In God We Trust”
The national motto, “In God We Trust,” is under attack on multiple fronts. But First Liberty is prepped and ready for battle, fighting to defend the motto and its use by representing Police Chief Adrian Garcia, Texas, and his desire to display the motto on his department’s vehicles. First Liberty also filed an amicus (friend-of-the-court) brief in federal court in Ohio to defend the use of the motto on U.S. currency.

WHERE DID THE MOTTO COME FROM?

The motto “In God We Trust” has been a part of America’s history for many years. It was first seen in Francis Scott Key’s Star Spangled Banner, as “In God is our Trust.” As many know, his song went on to become the national anthem, and in 1864 the phrase “In God We Trust” was printed onto the national currency for the first time.
