Two Republican state senators proposed specialty license plate designs for drivers in Oklahoma that includes two of President Donald Trump's campaign slogans.

If approved, drivers in the state could select plates with "Make America Great Again" and "Keep America Great," for a 35 annual fee.

Though the fee would be split between two veterans' charities and not directly support Trump's re-election campaign, the Washington Post reports that it could still violate campaign finance laws if the state uses taxpayer dollars or resources to make the plates.
