Bill > S2911

This bill expands eligibility for a special license plate designed for military veterans to include those who have been awarded a Combat Action Ribbon, in addition to the existing requirement of holding a Combat Infantryman Badge. The Combat Action Ribbon is a military award given for engaging in ground combat, and this change is particularly intended to benefit Marines, who are typically awarded the Combat Action Ribbon rather than the Combat Infantryman Badge, allowing them to obtain this distinctive plate for their vehicles. The bill also clarifies that the "director" responsible for issuing these plates and related regulations is now referred to as the "chief administrator," and it allows surviving spouses of eligible veterans to retain these special plates.
