WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court has refused to hear an anti-abortion's group request to force a state to issue "Choose Life" license plates.

The high court on Monday left in place a federal appeals court ruling that state officials were within their rights in trying to keep viewpoints on abortion off of Illinois license plates. Choose Life Illinois, Inc. sued to force the state to issue the plates.
