Exempts veterans' organizations from motor vehicle registration fee.
This bill exempts federally chartered veterans' organizations from paying motor vehicle registration fees for vehicles not used for personal pleasure or commercial hire. It adds these organizations to an existing list of exempt entities, including government agencies, fire departments, and nonprofit groups like the Red Cross. The key provision modifies New Jersey's vehicle registration law (R.S.39:3-27) to include veterans' organizations as eligible for the fee exemption. This directly affects qualifying veterans' groups that operate vehicles for organizational purposes, not personal or commercial use. The exemption applies to standard registration or special plates for these vehicles, as defined in the amended statute.
