The bill would amend the Transportation Code to allow the sponsor of a specialty license plate for professional firefighters to nominate a state agency for receipt of funds from the specialty plate fees. The bill would specify that the fees, after deduction of the Texas Department of Transportation's (TxDOT) administrative expenses, are to be deposited to the credit of an account in the state treasury to be used by the nominated state agency for making grants to support activities of a professional firefighters organization that meets the requirements specified by the bill.
The bill would take effect immediately upon receiving a vote of two-thirds of all members elected to each house or otherwise on September 1, 2009.
