SCS/HCS/HBs 1382 & 1158 - This act removes the one-set limit on special military license plates that may be issued to a qualified applicant. The act provides that, for certain special military license plates and future plates which may be authorized, there shall be no limit on the number of plates issued so long as each set of plates is issued for vehicles owned solely or jointly by the qualified person. The act authorizes the creation of a Disabled American Veterans special license plate. To obtain this plate, individuals must possess a valid membership issued by the Disabled American Veterans and present to the Department of Revenue a current photo identification, a valid Disabled American Veterans membership card, and payment of a $15 fee in addition to the registration fee and any other documents required by law. No additional fee will be charged for the personalization of the plate. This provision is contained in SB 942 (2006).
The act allows parents or siblings who have an immediate family member die in the line of duty while serving in the U.S. Armed Forces to receive a specialized license plate. A $25 contribution to the VFW Department of Missouri is required in addition to other registration fees. The plate shall bear the emblem of a five-pointed star and contain the words "SOME GAVE ALL."
