HF 433 Iowa House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A bill for an act relating to national wild turkey federation special registration plates, providing fees, and making appropriations.

HF 433 allows Iowa drivers to obtain special National Wild Turkey Federation (NWTF) license plates for a one-time $25 fee (plus $25 for personalized plates) and an annual $10 fee on top of regular registration. The fees collected are deposited into the road use tax fund and then transferred monthly to the state general fund, with the money appropriated to the Department of Natural Resources (DNR). The DNR must use these funds to award grants prioritizing Iowa chapters of organizations focused on wild turkey habitat conservation, improving hunting opportunities, and increasing hunter participation. This directly affects vehicle owners who choose these specialty plates and supports conservation efforts through dedicated funding.
