Authorizes creation of "Woman Veteran" license plates with emblem displaying silhouette of woman veteran saluting set against American flag background.
This bill would create special "Woman Veteran" license plates in New Jersey, featuring a silhouette of a woman veteran saluting against an American flag with the words "Woman Veteran." To obtain these plates, applicants must provide proof of veteran status (via DD-214 or discharge documents) and pay a $50 application fee plus a $10 annual renewal fee. The additional fees collected fund a dedicated "Woman Veteran License Plate Fund," which annually supports organizations assisting women veterans. The program requires 500 initial applications and $25,000 in private funding before implementation, and expires if these conditions aren't met within 12 months.
