HB 17-1149

House Bill 17-1149, which has been signed into law, changes how special license plates are issued to members and veterans of the United States Army Special Forces in Colorado. Currently, these plates require proof of service through specific military designations like 'S' suffix or other special forces identifiers. The bill removes eligibility for the special plate based on having an 'S' suffix alone. This affects only those who would have qualified specifically by this criterion and no longer allows them to apply solely based on it. Since the bill is signed, these changes are now in effect.

Official Summary

Currently, the department of revenue issues special license plates to members and veterans of the United States Army special forces. The plates are restricted to people whose orders or DD214 form show an awarded prefix '3' or suffix 'S' or a designation of '5G', 18/180 series MOS, special forces tab, OSS, or UNPIK-8240. The bill removes the ability to get the special license plate based on an awarded 'S' suffix. (Note: This summary applies to the reengrossed version of this bill as introduced in the second house.)
