The proposed bill amends Arizona Revised Statutes to establish a new section for the issuance of special plates for the Pascua Yaqui tribe, contingent upon a payment of $32,000 to the department by December 31, 2023. It allows for the combination of requests for these special plates with personalized plates, subject to additional fees. The bill also specifies that of the $25 fee for the special plates, $8 will be allocated as an administration fee and $17 will be designated as an annual donation.

Furthermore, the bill mandates that all special plate administration fees be deposited into the state highway fund, while donations will be sent to the Pascua Yaqui tribe for specific purposes, including education scholarships and legal assistance for unrepresented individuals. This new language replaces previous references to sections 28-2470.17 and updates the relevant statutes to include the new section 28-2470.18.
