The official New Jersey motto is "Liberty and Prosperity," which was adopted in 1776 in the New Jersey State Constitution. It is derived from a toast first used by New Jersey founder William Penn, who in 1681 declared, "May the counties of New Jersey enjoy liberty and prosperity forever." The motto reflects the ideals of freedom and prosperity that were foundational to the establishment of the State of New Jersey. This motto is also a reminder of the State's legacy of striving for economic and political independence.
