Staff Analysis of the Legislation
Current law already allows the state and national mottos to be posted in schools, but, in the case of the state motto, not specifically its literal English translation. 

 

Provisions: 

This bill allows the state motto (Ditat Deus, "God Enriches"), and the national motto (“In God We Trust”) to be read or posted in any school building.
