S 2754 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Authorizes creation of registered nurse license plates.

This New Jersey bill (S 2754) would allow registered nurses to obtain special license plates displaying "Registered Nurse" and the caduceus symbol. It requires applicants to pay a $50 fee (in addition to standard registration fees) and specifies that the Motor Vehicle Commission must design the plates and monitor costs. Implementation depends on the state securing funding for initial design, production, and publicizing the program before the plates can be issued. The bill affects licensed nurses who own or lease vehicles registered in New Jersey and is contingent on budget approval before becoming active.

Technical Review Of Prefiled Bill → Introduced · 3 edits · Jan 13, 2026

MINOR

The bill moved from its prefiled technical review stage to its introduced stage. The primary changes are procedural: the bill number was updated to remove the 'TR' (technical review) suffix, and the status line was changed to reflect introduction pending technical review by Legislative Counsel. A standard legislative statement summarizing the bill's provisions on registered nurse license plates was added at the end.

TECHNICAL

Bill designation changed from 'S2754 TR' to 'S2754', reflecting transition from prefiled technical review to introduced status.

Status line changed from 'As reported by the Senate Transportation Committee with technical review' to 'Introduced Pending Technical Review by Legislative Counsel.'

A legislative statement was appended summarizing the bill's provisions: authorizes special registered nurse license plates featuring a caduceus symbol, sets a $50 application fee, requires annual cost certification, allows discontinuation if average cost exceeds $50 for two consecutive fiscal years, and requires the Director of Budget and Accounting to specify initial funding before implementation.
