Senate Bill No. [insert bill number] proposes amendments to the eligibility criteria for disability parking permits in Montana. The bill introduces a provision allowing pregnant women to qualify for a temporary disability parking permit, provided they have a certification from a licensed physician, certified midwife, or licensed advanced practice registered nurse. This temporary permit can be issued for a period not exceeding one year and requires a $10 fee, which will be deposited into the state general fund.

Additionally, the bill amends Section 49-4-301 of the Montana Code Annotated (MCA) to include this new eligibility criterion for pregnant women while maintaining existing provisions for individuals with various disabilities. The effective date for this act is set for July 1, 2025.
