BOISE -- As former state and U.S. Rep. Bill Sali considers another run for elected office, he's also seeking the Legislature's assistance in promoting a nonprofit foundation created by him and his wife.
The former Republican lawmaker on Wednesday asked the House Transportation Committee to help create an "In God We Trust" license plate, with proceeds benefiting the American Heritage Foundation.
He and his wife, Terry, founded it last month.
The committee agreed to vet Sali's plan -- to use license-plate proceeds to promote discussion about America's founding and qualities he thinks exemplify proper citizenship.
He's also considering a primary run for the House, which he departed in 2006 for Congress.
His Kuna district has an open seat, and Sali says he has fond memories of public service that beckon him back.
