Supreme Court Won't Review North Carolina's Decision to Bar Confederate Flag License Plates

The Supreme Court declined to review North Carolina’s decision to stop issuing specialty license plates with the Confederate flag.
North Carolina stopped issuing plates with the insignia of the Sons of Confederate Veterans in 2021, citing potential offense to viewers.
The organization claimed the decision violated their free speech rights, but the court disagreed.
The dispute was similar to a 2015 case in Texas where the court ruled states could limit license plate content because plates are government property.
Lower courts and federal appeals court agreed North Carolina was within their rights to reject the plates.
