California City Will Vote On Adopting "In God We Trust" As Motto

A California city is moving to adopt "In God We Trust" as its official motto. Friday's Fresno (CA) Bee reports that Porterville, CA has a measure on its June 3 ballot that calls for adopting the motto. The motto is already unofficially on display in city council chambers, but its official adoption will place it on city letterhead as well. Council Member Eddie Hernandez who supports the proposal said: "We need to bring faith back into our community. We need to show we believe in a higher being." [Thanks to Scott Mange for the lead.]
