Veteran license tags; certain veterans exposed to radiation added to those who may receive distinctive tag

SB 341 expands the eligibility for distinctive motor vehicle license tags for veterans in Alabama. Currently, specific veterans exposed to radiation from atomic bomb and weapon testing between 1944 and 1962 can receive these tags. This bill would include additional veterans who were exposed to dangerous levels of radiation due to their service. This includes those who directly participated in atomic weapon detonations, cleanup of radioactive material, or were exposed to ionizing radiation during World War II. Eligible veterans would apply through their local license official and pay the standard license fee, plus an additional fee for the distinctive tag.
