Starting This Weekend, Obama's Limousine Will Get Rebellious New License Plates

The Washington Post's Tim Craig $4 that beginning this weekend, the White House will place "Taxation Without Representation" license plates on President Barack Obama's limousine. The White House's announcement comes as a response to a D.C. Council resolution and $4 from the city's residents to change the license plates and reflect Washington, D.C.'s official motto.

The city's official motto reflects a longstanding desire from citizens to have a representative in Congress because they are subject to taxation. President Bill Clinton also embraced the gesture during his term in office, but President George W. Bush removed them.

$4, the White House "has seen first-hand how patently unfair" it is for city residents to pay taxes without being represented by a member of Congress.

Here's a look at what the Obama limo's plates will look like:
