SPONSOR: O'Donnell
COMMITTEE ACTION: Voted "Do Pass" by the Standing Committee on Transportation by a vote of 14 to 0. Voted "Do Pass" by the Standing Committee on Rules- Legislative Oversight by a vote of 10 to 0.
Currently, an organization is required to send a list of at least 200 potential applicants who plan to purchase a specialty plate before such a specialty plate will be issued. This bill removes this requirement for Boy Scouts of America specialty license plates.
This bill is the same as HB 1704 (2020).
PROPONENTS: Supporters say that removing the 200 applicant minimum requirement would help get Boy Scouts of America specialty license plates in circulation. Boy Scouts of America is an organization that is over 100 years old and should be advertised.
Testifying for the bill was Representative O'Donnell.
OPPONENTS: Those who oppose the bill say that there are too many special license plates, they have a cost to administer, and they make it difficult for law enforcement officers to read correctly.
Testifying against the bill was Arnie Dienoff.
