They are "State Property" and welding them could be considered destroying state property.

I found this out on time when I was younger. I had a tailer with a seamless gutter machine on it that I left parked in my apartment complex overnight on a regular basis. After the third or fourth tag I had to replace I got the bright idea to weld it to the bracket. WORKED GREAT....until I was informed by a Trooper (pulled over for speeding...oops) that I could not alter the plate in any way....which included welding the edges. "That's why we put those nifty little holes in them" he said.
Okay, then weld the screws in place behind the bracket. "I didn't weld the state's license plate, Officer. I welded my screws that hold the plate in place!" (Okay, don't use those exact words or the tone I was saying them with in my head when talking to a LEO. ;-) )
