special plate; conservative grassroots network
HB 2112 creates a new "Conservative Grassroots Network" special license plate option in Arizona. To implement this, a single entity must pay the state $32,000 upfront, design the plate (subject to state approval), and the plate will carry an annual $25 fee. Of that $25, $17 annually goes directly to a dedicated "Conservative Grassroots Network special plate fund" administered by the state. This program affects Arizona vehicle owners who choose this plate option and provides funding to the named organization through plate fees. The bill does not alter standard license plate rules but adds this specific special plate category with defined funding mechanics.

MINOR
The bill was converted from an introduced draft to a formal House Engrossed version, adding official state headers, legislative session details, and the complete statutory text. The substantive policy content remains consistent between versions, establishing a new special license plate for the 'Conservative Grassroots Network' that requires a $32,000 implementation fee and directs donation proceeds to a specific fund.
Scope change
The scope of the bill remains unchanged; the differences are purely formatting and structural additions required for the official legislative record.
TECHNICAL
Added official state headers, legislative session information (57th Legislature, 2026), and the formal 'Be it enacted' language required for the bill to be legally operative.
Inserted the full text of the new statute (Section 28-2470.40) creating the 'Conservative Grassroots Network' special plate, including the $32,000 implementation fee requirement and fund allocation rules.
Replaced the informal 'PREFILED' header and sponsor list with the formal 'House Engrossed' designation and standardized statutory formatting markers.
