AN ACT EXEMPTING SENIOR CITIZENS, VETERANS AND ACTIVE DUTY MEMBERS OF THE ARMED FORCES FROM THE PASSPORT TO THE PARKS MOTOR VEHICLE REGISTRATION FEE.

HB 5262 exempts seniors (65+), veterans, and active-duty military members from Connecticut's "Passport to the Parks" motor vehicle registration fee. The bill amends statute 14-49b to remove this fee for those specific groups when registering a vehicle. It directly affects eligible individuals who currently pay this annual registration fee. The provision changes the existing fee structure by creating a targeted exemption based on age, military service, or veteran status. This is a straightforward policy change with no new funding or program requirements.
