VEH CD-DISABLED VET PLATES
Summary
Amends the Illinois Vehicle Code. Deletes provisions requiring a 100% disability and eligibility for the purchase of a vehicle by the federal government as conditions for eligibility for disabled veterans' registration plates. Replaces the deleted provisions with provisions requiring that the veteran hold proof of a service-connected disability from the United States Department of Veterans Affairs and that a licensed physician, physician assistant, or advanced practice nurse has certified that the veteran qualifies for issuance of registration plates or decals to a person with disabilities. Repeals a provision that authorized the issuance of handicapped veterans' registration plates to disabled veterans who have less than 100% disability and are eligible for the purchase of a vehicle by the federal government. Deletes cross-references to the repealed provision.
