Our motto: a regnati consensu translates to, “from the consent of the governed”. This phrase is borrowed from the Declaration of Independence which stated, “Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed.” This motto is again a reminder that our power is ultimately derived from the people, and is intended to empower us to defend, serve, and protect the people.
