Federal Judge Upholds Texas Pledge Containing Phrase Under GodDALLAS – A Dallas federal judge has ruled that the phrase “under God” in the Texas Pledge of Allegiance is constitutional on March 27. The court’s decision rejected a lawsuit filed by a Dallas couple, who unsuccessfully argued that the state pledge violated the First Amendment’s Establishment Clause.
“Today’s ruling protects young Texans’ right to pledge their allegiance to ‘one state, under God’ – just as they pledge to ‘one nation, under God,’” Attorney General Abbott said. “The United States Supreme Court has repeatedly held that patriotic acknowledgments of the Almighty are constitutional. Texans can rest assured that we will continue defending their children’s ability to recite the state Pledge of Allegiance each morning.”
