In God We Trust Act
S 2736, the "In God We Trust Act," requires the Administrator of General Services to display the national motto "In God We Trust" on all federal public buildings within one year of the bill's enactment. This affects all federal buildings managed by the General Services Administration, including courthouses, post offices, and government offices. The bill mandates the motto be displayed prominently, referencing the existing legal definition of the motto in U.S. Code Section 36.302. The legislation is procedural, focusing solely on the physical display requirement without altering other laws or policies.
