To Authorize The Issuance And Renewal Of A Special License Plate To Promote And Support The Arkansas Dyslexia Support Group; And To Repeal The Little Rock Air Force Base Special License Plate.

Impact

If enacted, the new license plate will generate revenue for the Arkansas Dyslexia Support Group through fees associated with the issuance and renewal of such plates. Specifically, there will be a $25 design-use contribution fee directed to the Arkansas Dyslexia Support Group, along with standard registration fees. This financial support is intended to help the group enhance its outreach and educational programs aimed at dyslexia awareness and resources.

Summary

House Bill 1831 proposes to authorize the issuance and renewal of a special motor vehicle license plate in Arkansas that promotes and supports the Arkansas Dyslexia Support Group. This initiative aims to raise awareness about dyslexia and provide financial support to organizations involved in dyslexia advocacy, education, and resources. The bill also facilitates the repeal of an existing special license plate associated with the Little Rock Air Force Base, indicating a shift in focus towards supporting dyslexia-related causes.

Contention

While the bill primarily focuses on promoting dyslexia awareness, it also raises questions about the significance of canceling the existing Little Rock Air Force Base license plate. Stakeholders may engage in discussions regarding the appropriateness of reallocating the state's limited license plate offerings, particularly if existing plates serve significant local community interests. Additionally, the prospective impact of increased awareness versus the potential loss of past commemorations may invite varying opinions among legislators and constituents.
