In God We Trust Act
To require the Administrator of General Services to display or inscribe the national motto of the United States on all Federal buildings, and for other purposes.
HB8826, also known as the In God We Trust Act, aims to mandate the display of the national motto "In God We Trust" on all federal buildings. This bill was introduced on May 14, 2026, and is currently in the initial stages of the legislative process, having been referred to the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure for further review.
If passed, this legislation would affect all federal buildings by requiring the inclusion of the national motto. This could include schools, post offices, and other government facilities across the country. The goal is to ensure that the motto is visibly present in public spaces managed by the federal government.
Currently, HB8826 has just been introduced and referred to a committee for review. It has not yet been scheduled for a hearing or vote. The bill's next steps will involve committee discussions, potential amendments, and ultimately a vote by the full House. Citizens interested in the bill's progress can stay informed through their representatives or on official legislative websites.
