License Plate State Slogans
I am thinking up a little trivia game using the license plate state slogans as a topic. For instance the license plate on Ontario is "yours to discover"; Maine is "vacation land"; Minisota is " Discover 10,000 Lakes, etc, etc.
Will you pls. post the slogans on your license plates to help me out. Thanks.

It took many many years but finally on March 16, 2004 "The State of Independence" was adopted as the state's offical slogan.

Oregon On License Plate "Oregon"
Motto from Oregon Blue Book "She Flies With Her Own Wings"
was adopted by the 1987 Legislature as the state motto. The phrase originated with Judge Jessie Quinn Thornton and was pictured on the territorial seal in Latin: Alis Volat Propriis. The new motto replaces “The Union,” which was adopted in 1957.
I guess we just can't decide on a lasting motto.

In Virginia we don’t seem to have a standard saying on our regular tags,
The standard plate for my truck is:
TRUCK
while our car plate is:
1607 400th * Anniversary 2007
* is picture of boat for Jamestown, VA Now with that said you can pay extra for tags with just about anything (picture or saying) on them.

Wisconsin: "America's Dairyland"
We refuse to acknowledge that California produces more milk and cheese than we do. Then of course ours taste better and wins more awards.
