Distinctive motor vehicle license tag; authorize for supporters of the Mississippi Sound Estuary Program.
SB 2833 would authorize Mississippi residents to purchase distinctive vehicle license tags supporting the Mississippi Sound Estuary Program, requiring an additional $30 fee per tag. This fee would fund the program ($24), the Mississippi Burn Care Fund ($1), the State Highway Fund ($2), and another special fund ($1) per tag sold. The bill applies only to residents who pay the extra fee and display the tag on their vehicle, with the tag design approved by both the state and the supported organization. (Note: The bill died in committee in February 2026.)
