TRANSPORTATION – Amends existing law to revise provisions regarding Don’t Tread On Me license plates and to establish the Idaho Firearms Safety Education Committee.
This bill establishes "Don't Tread On Me" license plates for Idaho vehicle owners, effective retroactively from January 1, 2025. Owners pay a $35 initial fee and $25 annual fee, with $22 and $12 respectively deposited into a new Firearms Safety Grant Fund. It also creates the Idaho Firearms Safety Education Committee to manage this fund, which will support firearms safety programs. The bill specifies the plate design (yellow background with Gadsden flag and rattlesnake imagery) and requires a prequalification process for future special license plates.
