WELL IF THE 9TH SAYS SO

9th Circuit Upholds Constitutionality of National Motto & Pledge

Two important decisions today from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit – upholding the constitutionality of both the National Motto and the Pledge of Allegiance. The ACLJ represented nearly 50 members of Congress in filing an amicus brief with the appeals court defending the National Motto’s use on currency.   These decisions represent another important victory and sends a powerful message that the National Motto and Pledge of Allegiance are not only well established and patriotic expressions, but ones that most courts have recognized as being constitutional as well. http://www.aclj.org/TrialNotebook/Read.aspx?ID=928
