A group of 13 Republican state legislators are proposing a bill that would require all public buildings and schools in Kansas to post the national motto, \u201cIn God We Trust.\u201d<\/p>\n

The House Bill 2476, which was introduced on Jan. 30, would mandate that all public school classrooms and libraries, public colleges and universities, and all state and municipal buildings display the motto, alongside the flags of Kansas and the United States.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt should be displayed as an acknowledgment of our countrys history and founding principles,\u201d state Rep. Michael Capps, a lead Republican sponsor of the bill, told local news outlet The Wichita Eagle<\/a>.<\/p>\n

State Rep. Stephanie Clayton (D) raised concerns over the potential message to atheists. \u201cI already have some heartburn here,\u201d she said, reported The Wichita Eagle. \u201cBecause not everyone in this country or state does believe in God.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Capps noted that Kansass state constitution also mentions God. \u201cDoes having the reference to God in the Kansas state constitution make every atheist feel second-class?\u201d he asked, the Associated Press<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n

Kansass proposed law is following in the footsteps of eight other states that have made the display of \u201cIn God We Trust\u201d in public schools mandatory, namely Florida, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, and Virginia. In July 2019, South Dakota became the latest state where public schools must display the motto<\/a> in \u201ca prominent location\u201d or other common areas where students are most likely to see the it, such as an entryway or cafeteria.<\/p>\n

Some other states including Alabama, Arizona, and Texas, have passed similar legislation that allows, but does not require, \u201cIn God We Trust\u201d to be posted in public schools. In Georgia and Ohio, such displays are only allowed if they are donated. Arkansas state law<\/a> rules that if such a display is donated to a public school, it must be posted there.<\/p>\n
