The motto “In God We Trust” is being displayed in a growing number of Texas schools, thanks to a law that recently went into effect requiring its display in a prominent location in public schools and institutions of higher education in the state.

Texas state Sen. Bryan Hughes, a Republican, co-authored Senate Bill 797, which was passed last year and requires schools to display the motto as long as the signs featuring it came from private donations and at no cost to taxpayers.
