SF870

The bill proposes creating a new special license plate for recipients of the Army Commendation Medal in Minnesota. It is an amendment to existing legislation that already provides for special license plates for various veteran groups. This includes plates for Vietnam War veterans, Pearl Harbor survivors, and recipients of other significant military honors such as the Purple Heart and the Bronze Star. Each special plate will carry a unique inscription and possibly an emblem related to the specific service or honor recognized. The bill details the requirements and eligibility for these plates, outlining how veterans can qualify and what proof they need to provide. The design and distribution of these plates are to be managed by the commissioners of veterans affairs and public safety.
