County to discuss “In God We Trust” motto

The Butler County commissioners are set Wednesday to decide whether they should start displaying the motto “In God We Trust” inside their meeting room at the government center.

Commissioner Dale Pinkerton is proposing the move based on a national initiative by In God We Trust~America Inc., a nonprofit organization dedicated to spreading the mission of patriotism.

Commissioner Jim Eckstein opposes the resolution.

Eckstein said the county could face a legal battle with the American Civil Liberties Union over the issue.
