While Senate looks at bill to limit special license plates, House has introduced another special plate bill

As the Senate prepares to debate SB 1243 this morning, Sen. Jim Hammond’s bill to limit future special license plates to just public agencies or the foundations that support them, another special license plate bill already has been introduced this week in the House. That plate, sponsored by Lewiston Reps. John Rusche and Jeff Nessett, would be in honor of the sesquicentennial - the 150th anniversary - of the creation of Idaho Territory, and funds raised by it would go to local historical societies in the counties where plates are purchased.
