COSTA MESA, Calif.—A group that advocates the separation of church and state is urging the Orange County Board of Education to remove its “In God We Trust” plaque from the boardroom and ban prayers before meetings.
According to its website, Americans United for Separation of Church and State (AU) is “dedicated to advancing the separation of religion and government as the only way to ensure freedom of religion, including the right to believe or not believe, for all.”
