The resolution, introduced by Representative Illg, calls for the Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles to enhance its discretion in issuing temporary tags and permanent license plates, while also urging the Louisiana State Police to ramp up enforcement against the proliferation of fictitious license plates in the state. The resolution highlights the growing concerns surrounding the illegal acquisition of temporary tags, often facilitated by dubious car dealers or created through printing, which not only undermines public safety but also leads to significant revenue losses for the government.

The resolution emphasizes the need for a coordinated effort between the Office of Motor Vehicles and law enforcement to effectively combat the issue of fictitious license plates, which are linked to various criminal activities and pose risks to road safety. It acknowledges the ongoing efforts by police to confiscate fake tags, citing recent successes, but stresses that a comprehensive and sustained approach is necessary to fully address the problem. The resolution concludes by directing that copies be sent to relevant authorities to ensure implementation.
