(CNSNews.com) - The Louisiana Supreme Court has refused to hear the appeal of abortion supporters who are battling the state's decision to allow "Choose Life" license plates. Six states now offer such a license plate, and a seventh plans to do so, once lawsuits are settled. "I'm confident that South Carolina's tag will be freed up here pretty soon," said Russ Amerling, national publicity coordinator of ChooseLife, Inc. Proceeds from the tag, which costs $22, will be used to encourage adoption for women with unplanned pregnancies. Money raised from sales of the plate will fund maternity homes, crisis pregnancy centers and certain non-profit adoption agencies, according to ChooseLife, Inc.'s website. So far, the group has raised $1.4 million nationwide, $1.3 million of it in Florida alone, where the program was first launched. The National Organization for Women filed a lawsuit against the State of Florida in 1999, trying to prevent distribution of the plate, but that suit was later dismissed.
