Hayashi Introduces Bill For LGBT License Plate

[William769]

Assemblywoman Mary Hayashi (D-Hayward) has introduced a bill to create the first lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) specialty license plate for California.

If passed and signed into law AB 1539 would make California the fourth state in the nation—after South Carolina, Indiana, and Maryland— to offer a LGBT-themed license plate, according to a press release from Hayashi's office.

Proceeds from plate sales would go to anti-bullying programs through the state Department of Education.

Patch has asked Hayashi's staff for an estimate of the bill's financial impact.

1. Interesting that they have to pass a special bill...

I assume it will pass, though.
