S.B. No. 927 proposes an amendment to the Transportation Code to establish a new specialty license plate for recipients of the Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal. The bill adds a new subsection (s) to Section 504.315, which mandates that the Texas Department of Transportation issue these specialty plates. The design of the plates will feature the Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal emblem and will include the phrase "Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal" at the bottom.
The bill is set to take effect on September 1, 2025, allowing for the implementation of this new recognition for military service members who have received the specified medal. This initiative aims to honor and acknowledge the achievements of these individuals through a dedicated license plate.
