1. United States National Motto.
The modern motto of the United States of America, as established in a 1956 law signed by President Dwight D. Eisenhower, is "In God we trust". The phrase first appeared on U.S. coins in 1864. The 1956 law was the first establishment of an official motto for the country, although E Pluribus Unum ("from many, one") was adopted by an Act of Congress in 1782 as the motto for the Seal of the United States and has been used on coins and paper money since 1795.(Submitted on January 16, 2022, by Cosmos Mariner of Cape Canaveral, Florida.)
2. Official State Motto of Ohio.
"With God All Things Are Possible" became Ohio's state motto on October 1, 1959. A twelve-year-old boy named James Mastronardo recommended this quotation from the bible during a contest in the early 1950's to select a state motto (sponsored by the Ohio legislature).(Submitted on January 16, 2022, by Cosmos Mariner of Cape Canaveral, Florida.)
