S 5355 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to the issuance of distinctive plates for retired members of the New York state legislature

S 5355 allows retired New York state legislators residing in New York to request special license plates displaying "Retired NYS Legislator." To qualify, applicants must verify their retired status and pay the standard vehicle registration fee plus a $25 annual service charge. The bill requires a $6,000 financial guarantee for plate production unless 200+ orders are received upfront, with fees funding a dedicated plate development fund. This procedural bill directly affects retired state legislators who choose to apply for these distinctive plates.
