A 617 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Authorizes creation of Juneteenth commemorative license plates.

New Jersey Assembly Bill A617 authorizes the creation of Juneteenth commemorative license plates for vehicle owners in the state. The bill requires a $50 initial application fee and $10 annual renewal fee (in addition to standard registration costs), with all collected funds deposited into a "Juneteenth License Plate Fund" managed by the New Jersey Historical Commission. This fund must be used to commemorate Juneteenth, and the program cannot launch until the Historical Commission secures $25,000 in private funding and provides 500 pre-orders for the plates. The plates must display commemorative wording/emblems and are subject to standard vehicle registration rules.
