New Jersey committee advances bill for American Revolution plate

A New Jersey committee has advanced a bill commemorating the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution with a special license plate.

“New Jersey played a pivotal role in the American Revolution, serving as a key battleground for many important conflicts,” state Sen. Holzafpel, R-Ocean, said. “This license plate commemorates the state’s significant contributions to our nations fight for independence and highlights the sacrifices made by New Jerseyans. I also want to thank Senator Diegnan for his partnership on this effort.”

July 2025 will celebrate the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution. New Jersey saw more military engagements than almost any other state.

“Not only will these license plates commemorate the 250th anniversary of the start of the Revolutionary War, but proceeds from an accompanying fund will support the preservation of New Jersey’s Revolutionary War sites, including places where historic tide-turning battles occurred,” state Sen. Patrick Diegnan, D-Middlesex, said.
