Many types of plates supporting military, sports, and other groups are issued.

New Jersey is currently arguing a case involving the issuance of anti-abortion specialty plates. The Assistant Attorney General of New Jersey argued the state isn’t trying to avoid controversy, but the law limits to designs to logos and group names, and does not allow slogans.
