"CHOOSE LIFE" AUTOMOBILE LICENSE PLATES

Sponsored link.

Overview:

These automobile license plates are available, at a premium cost, in a few U.S. states. They usually contain a drawing of two children, and the slogan "Choose Life," which is derived from a passage in the Bible. A portion of the surcharge is generally given to pro-life agencies which refer women to adoption agencies and who refuse to refer them to abortion clinics..

Their constitutionality is questionable. Some legal experts argue that they are unconstitutional, unless the state also provides plates with opposing messages like "Support adoption," or "Support abortion choice."
