Bill Summary
Distinctive license plates; Helping Schools plate design requirements further provided for, certain individuals eligible to receive the new license plate design at no cost
AI Summary
This bill modifies the requirements for "Helping Schools" distinctive license plates in Alabama, specifying that these plates will now feature a white background with red lettering for "Helping Schools" and include drawings of a red apple, green book, and yellow ruler. Previously, the design was less detailed, and the State Department of Revenue was responsible for its creation. A key change is that for the registration year beginning January 1, 2027, individuals who purchased or renewed a "Helping Schools" plate between March 1, 2025, and December 31, 2026, will receive a new plate that meets these updated design requirements at no additional cost, with the Department of Revenue issuing the replacement. The bill also clarifies that the design of these plates must comply with all existing laws and regulations.
