GOP: 'In God We Trust' bill needed to remind President Obama
By Pete Kasperowicz - 11/01/11 05:41 PM ET

The Republican sponsor of a resolution reaffirming that "In God We Trust" is the national motto of the U.S. said his legislation is needed because President Obama and other public officials often forget that designation.

"Unfortunately, there are a number of public officials who forget what the national motto is, whether intentionally or unintentionally," Rep. Randy Forbes (R-Va.) said in late Tuesday afternoon debate in the House. "There are those who become confused as to whether or not it can still be placed on our buildings, whether it can be placed in our school classrooms.

"Almost a year ago, the President in making a speech across the world said that our national motto was 'E pluribus unum,' " Forbes added. "When the Visitors Center was opened… they did not have the national motto in there. In fact, they inscribed in the stones that our national motto was 'E pluribus unum.' "

Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-NY) was the only Democrat speaker, and said Republicans were turning to the resolution in order to dodge more important issues such as job creation.
