Authorizes the creation of a 9-8-8 license plate
This bill allows New York residents to request a special 9-8-8 license plate supporting the suicide prevention hotline. The plate would be issued upon payment of a $25 annual fee (in addition to standard registration), with $5,000 allocated to offset production costs after one year. It directly affects vehicle owners who choose to display this plate to raise awareness for mental health crisis support. The bill creates no new requirements but provides a voluntary option for residents to contribute to the 9-8-8 system through their vehicle registration.
