Local Senator Pavlov, recently sponsored a Senate legislation to create a special license plate recognizing families of active duty military. Senate Bill 821 would create a Blue Star Family license plate available to individuals currently serving in the U.S. armed forces and their immediate family members which allows families to share their pride in their enlisted service member. The bill has been sent to the House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure. Currently, at the secretary of state, there is a Gold Star Family license plate available to the immediate family of a service member who has died in the line of duty.
