My local police department [View all]

My local police department has affixed decals to the rear bumpers of police vehicles that read, "In God We Trust." I personally object, but I feel like it's unconstitutional because "God" has no say or influence whatsoever in public policing or government. Is it worth the time and effort to contact the mayor of our small city and ask that the decals be removed?
