Relating to the issuance of specialty license plates for licensed peace officers.

SB 71 creates specialty license plates for active Texas peace officers, requiring the Department of Motor Vehicles to issue plates displaying "Licensed Peace Officer" with the same design as existing specialty plates. The plates will be provided at no cost to qualified officers, defined as those actively licensed under Texas Occupations Code Chapter 1701. The bill takes effect September 1, 2025, and directly affects licensed peace officers by offering a free, standardized plate option recognizing their role. This is a procedural change focused solely on plate issuance, with no additional fees or policy shifts.
