Senate committee approves legislation requiring MVC to issue women veterans license plates

NEW JERSEY – The Senate Transportation Committee Thursday passed legislation sponsored by Senator Kristin Corrado (R-40) that would require the Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC) to issue license plates designed for women Veterans.

The design is to have a silhouette of a woman saluting against an American flag background with the words “Woman Veteran” on the plate.

“This license plate was designed by one of our constituents and is a step towards ensuring women Veterans are not only seen but celebrated for their selfless contributions to our military,” said Corrado. “With this plate, we make it clear that their service is an integral part of our nation’s history.”

Applicants must provide a DD-214 or Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty to qualify for a plate.
