Kentucky Letting Their Light Shine
July 16, 2008 7:44 pm Announcement, FaithKentucky Pursues ‘In God We Trust’ License Plate
Kentucky Gov. Steve Beshear, a Democrat, is seeking legislation authorizing “In God We Trust” license plates at no additional cost.
Joe Prather, Beshear’s transportation secretary, sent a letter Monday asking the state House and Senate transportation committees to pass legislation to create the plates.
Similar legislation passed the House this year, but failed in the Senate.
” ‘In God We Trust’ is essentially our national motto,” Beshear told The Courier-Journal. “And that national motto belongs to every American and indeed every Kentuckian. In my opinion, nobody should have to pay extra to have that national motto reflected on their license plate.”
Several states, including Indiana, South Carolina and North Carolina, offer “In God We Trust” license plates.—CitizenLink.org
See Virginia, there really is a decent Democrat.
