AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 21 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO SPECIAL LICENSE PLATES.
Summary
This Act discontinues the Delaware State Education Association centennial limited edition special license plate and replaces it with an updated special license plate of the Delaware State Education Association. A special license plate supports a cause and is available for purchase by the public at large, including by members the beneficiary organization. The numbers, letters, or both, assigned will be the same as the license plate assigned to the owner’s vehicle at the time of the application for the plate. This Act does not affect the validity of Delaware State Education Association centennial limited edition special license plates issued previously under § 2140G of Title 21; Delaware State Education Association centennial special license plates that are otherwise valid remain valid. This Act requires a greater-than-majority vote for passage because Article VIII, § 11 of the Delaware Constitution requires the affirmative vote of 3/5 of the members elected to each house of the General Assembly when a new tax or license fee is imposed.
