S 1934 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to the creation of the "No Hate NY" license plate and the "No Hate NY fund"

This bill creates a special "No Hate NY" license plate, requiring a $25 annual fee from vehicle owners who choose it. The entire fee funds the "No Hate NY fund," managed by the state division of human rights, to support hate crime awareness and prevention programs. Counties can request these funds for local initiatives, and unclaimed money after five years is redirected to hate crime victim compensation. The fund requires annual reporting on how money is spent and ensures all collected fees directly support hate crime prevention efforts.
