The Pledge of Allegiance including the phrase one nation under God is part of our cultural landscape and rich religious history. But sadly, it has become part of a never-ending legal challenge. Once again, a lawsuit has been filed against Congress that the Pledge is unconstitutional that the phrase under God fosters divisiveness and is a violation of the separation of church and state. As it has in the past, the ACLJ is standing in firm support of the Pledge preparing to file amicus briefs in Freedom From Religion Foundation v. Congress on behalf of members of Congress ... and on behalf of those who join our Committee to Protect Under God. We must stand in support of the Pledge and protect the phrase one nation under God. Please read the form below carefully and declare your membership with the ACLJ by joining our Committee to Protect Under God.

Committee to Protect Under God

Michael Newdow is once again challenging the constitutionality of the Pledge of Allegiance, including the words one nation under God, representing the Freedom From Religion Foundation in Freedom From Religion Foundation v. Congress.

But more than that, the Freedom From Religion Foundation and other groups are striking at the very heart of Americas foundational beliefs and time-honored traditions. They will not stop until every public mention of God is stripped from our country.

The Pledge of Allegiance is a core piece of Americas heritage. It acknowledges that our freedoms as a nation come from God ... and it must be preserved.

We support the American Center for Law and Justice and join with them as they stand ready to combat this legal challenge and protect our religious liberty, cultural heritage, and constitutional freedom.
