North Texas school districts that accepted donated signs with the nation's motto, 'In God We Trust,' to display in their schools could soon be hit with lawsuits.
Patriot Mobile, a self-described conservative, Christian business, donated the signs in question to the North Texas school districts.
"We don't like the law," said Sravan Krishna, a Southlake-Carroll ISD parent."We didn't make the law, but we have to follow the law. But we want to do it in a way that includes everybody and also respects the law, by having compliant signs." "We are not a Christian, nationalist mobile corporation," he said."We are parents, voters, taxpayers in the community, and we sought input from current and former students on, 'Ok this is the law, what can you do to make you feel like everybody is included?'"
The signs from Patriot Mobile have two Texas flags and dozens of stars in the background, which are added design elements Krishna and other parents say put it in violation of the law.It may seem like a small detail to argue, but this group of parents say it's about a much bigger fight.
