SB 1806

This bill amends Texas Transportation Code to add the Nuclear Deterrence Operations Service Medal to the list of military awards for which the state will issue specialty license plates. The legislation expands the existing program that allows veterans who have received certain military campaign and service medals to obtain license plates displaying the name of their award. By including the Nuclear Deterrence Operations Service Medal—which recognizes service members who have performed duties related to nuclear weapons operations—the bill ensures that recipients of this medal can also display their service achievement on their vehicle license plates, joining recipients of nine other military awards already eligible for this recognition.
