This bill amends various sections of the Idaho Code related to vehicle registration and special license plates. It specifically updates Section 49-402 to include a new code reference for the "too great for hate" license plates, which will be available starting January 1, 2026. The bill establishes a fee structure for these plates, including an initial fee of $35 and an annual renewal fee of $25, with portions of these fees allocated to the state highway account and the human rights commission program fund. Additionally, it amends Section 49-402D to outline exemptions from special license plate procedures and to clarify the financial plan requirements for new special plate programs.

Furthermore, the bill introduces a new section, 49-420T, which details the provisions for the "too great for hate" license plates, including eligibility criteria, fee distribution, and the establishment of a human rights commission program fund. The fund will support initiatives aimed at promoting anti-discrimination and public understanding of Idaho's laws. The bill declares an emergency, making it effective on July 1, 2025, to ensure timely implementation of these changes.
