The state of Texas has decided not to allow drivers to order special edition license plates featuring the confederate flag.
A board at the Department of Motor Vehicles voted against the proposed plates Thursday.
The board was appointed by Rick Perry who’s vying for the GOP’s Presidential nomination and recently said about the plates,
“We don’t need to be opening old wounds.”
The Confederate flag has a history of carrying racist undertones.
