relative to special number plates for surviving spouses of veterans.

This bill authorizes the issuance of special number plates for surviving spouses of veterans who have passed away, allowing them to keep the license plates indefinitely until they remarry. The legislation amends existing laws to ensure that these plates, originally designated for veterans, can be transferred to a spouse without requiring a new application or fee upon the veteran's death. Additionally, the bill extends similar permanent rights to the surviving spouses of retired National Guard members and active-duty service members who qualify as veterans. These changes aim to provide a seamless transition for families while maintaining the requirement that the plates are non-transferable to anyone other than the eligible spouse.
