Capitals Number Plates Proposed

As part of package of new number plates authorized by the General Assembly, supporters of Arlington’s own Washington Capitals will soon have the chance to proclaim their allegiance to the team.

Legislation patroned by state Sen. Mary Margaret Whipple (D-31st) was approved by both houses of the legislature as part of a broader agreement on new specialty number plates.

Some of the funds raised through sales of the plates will go to support the charitable arm of the hockey team.
