The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 6724, aims to amend title 14 of the general statutes to establish a special motor vehicle number plate dedicated to honoring the 65th Infantry Regiment of the United States Army, known as "The Borinqueneers," who were primarily composed of Puerto Rican soldiers. This initiative seeks to recognize their distinguished service and contributions.

Additionally, the bill stipulates that the revenues generated from the sales of these special number plates, after deducting administrative fees, will be allocated to support Hispanic heritage programming events and initiatives throughout the state. This provision emphasizes the dual purpose of the bill: to honor the legacy of The Borinqueneers while also promoting cultural heritage within the community.
