❌ SB302
Create the Land of U.S. Grant license plate
Summary
The bill creates a specialty license plate titled 'Land of U.S. Grant' in Ohio, requiring applicants to pay a $20 contribution for the plate, which will be deposited into a license plate contribution fund. The registrar of motor vehicles will issue the plates upon application and payment of applicable fees, and the contributions will support various charitable organizations as specified in the bill.
Rationale
The bill involves government regulation and the collection of fees for specialty license plates, which contradicts the Libertarian principles of minimal government intervention and free markets. It also does not align with the LPO's advocacy for limited government functions and the removal of laws that create unnecessary financial burdens on individuals.
Risks and Concerns
- Increased government involvement in personal choices regarding vehicle registration.
- Potential misuse of funds collected through mandatory contributions.
