Adds the National Women's Soccer League and the National Women's Basketball Association to the list of available sports team special license plates
HB 3273 adds the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL) and National Women's Basketball Association (WNBA) to the list of professional sports teams eligible for special license plates. Vehicle owners can pay a $35 annual fee to receive plates featuring a team's emblem, with plates only produced after 100 applications are received for each team. Funds collected from the fee (minus up to 5% for administration) are directed to local sports authorities or commissions for team marketing, or to the Chiefs' Children's Fund for the Kansas City Chiefs. This bill directly affects drivers seeking specialty plates and the teams involved, creating a new revenue stream for their marketing efforts.
