Massachusetts State Seal and Motto Survey

A commission working to come up with a new seal and motto for Massachusetts is turning to the public for help, releasing a survey officials hope will inform a final recommendation due by mid-November.

 

In a Thursday statement, the commission said it had released a public survey created in partnership with UMass Boston where residents can “have a voice in creating a seal and motto that represents the history and aspirations of Massachusetts.”

 

“We believe the people of Massachusetts deserve the opportunity to weigh in on the symbols and terms that can serve as inspiration for all residents,” commission co-chair Brian Boyle and co-vice chair Brittney Peauwe Wunnepog Walley said in a statement.
