AI Summary

This bill creates a new special license plate for Washington state honey bees and pollinators, which will cost $40 for initial issuance and $30 for renewal. The license plate will display images of honey bees and pollinators, and the proceeds from the plate will be used to provide funds to the Washington state beekeepers association to support research and educational activities and materials about honey bees and pollinators within Washington state. The bill updates several sections of existing law to incorporate this new license plate, including adding it to the lists of special license plate fees and approved special license plate designs. This legislation is part of a broader effort to raise awareness and support for pollinator research and education by creating a specialized license plate that drivers can purchase to show their support for bees and other pollinators. The new license plate will become available on November 1, 2025.
