HI,
MI and ME have recently passed legislation
for a
Gold Star Family license plate.
DC has had no
action on legislation. Even Guam
has GS plate. If you live in
DC contact your local
legislator and support this
legislation. If you don't live
in DC contact your federal
legislators and urge them to
support this effort.
"Be it resolved,
that since the District of
Columbia is the only
jurisdiction in the United
States that does not offer a
Gold Star Family license plate,
it is further resolved that
American Gold Star Mothers, Inc,
supports a Gold Star Family
license plate for the District
of Columbia and this shall be
accomplished promptly."
The statue, the
central element of the memorial
was designed by
Andrew Chernak. Dedication
set for Sunday, May 1, 2011, in
Stanton Plaza, on Elm Street
across from Veterans Park,
Manchester, NH.
