Bill > HB2940

This bill amends the Illinois Vehicle Code to expand existing registration fee benefits for military personnel to also include veterans. Specifically, beginning with the 2026 registration year, the bill establishes that Illinois vehicle owners who have been issued a driver's license with a veteran's designation will pay a standard registration fee of $100 for passenger motor vehicles of the first division and motor vehicles of the second division weighing not more than 8,000 pounds. This is an extension of a previous law that already provided a 50% registration fee reduction for active duty military personnel stationed outside the United States for 90 days or more. By adding veterans to the fee reduction program, the bill aims to provide financial relief and recognition for those who have served in the military, acknowledging their service by offering a reduced vehicle registration fee.
