The reviser said the organization sought plates with a guaranteed number of distinctive plates \"anywhere from 25 to a hundred\" and that usual issuance and design fees would apply, with proceeds deposited into a fund paid to the Route 66 Association of Kansas.

An amendment was offered to add Highway 54 to the bill and to change the bill's effective date so it would take effect upon publication in the Kansas Register rather than when codified in the statute book. The amendment was seconded by Representative Anderson. Representative Paul Heisel asked whether publication in the Kansas Register or entry in the statute book made the bill effective sooner; a committee member summarized that the change \"really actually just affects when the bill goes into effect.\"

Representative Collins suggested an alternative effective date of June 6, but the committee moved forward with the publication change. Representative Goddard observed the bill likely will go to conference committee; other members discussed using the bill as a negotiating tool with the Senate in conference. The committee approved the amendment by voice and returned to the bill.

A motion to pass SB 98 out favorably, as amended, was moved and seconded by Representative Helgerson; the committee approved the motion (the transcript records \"motion carries\" but does not include a roll‑call tally).","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","House Committee on Transportation 03/06/2025","oneSentenceSummary","SB 98, a bill to authorize distinctive license plates tied to the Route 66 Association of Kansas, was amended to add Highway 54 and to set its effective date as upon publication in the Kansas Register rather than entry in the statute book; the Committee on Transportation then passed SB 98 out favorably as amended.","taxTitle","Committee on Transportation , Standing, HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, Committees, Legislative, Kansas","taxId",18812,"location","Kansas","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6649221,"Committee approves bill requiring dealer inventory titles for used ATVs, UTVs and motorcycles",76,293000,369000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2521422-75a1fd73fd6a8ebcd40d1ca3efcbac5f&start=293&end=369","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2521422-75a1fd73fd6a8ebcd40d1ca3efcbac5f/thumbnail_293000.jpg","/articles/6649221/Kansas/Committee-approves-bill-requiring-dealer-inventory-titles-for-used-ATVs-UTVs-and-motorcycles","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6649221-8cdeb2bdb84297cfae7e23e41387095f/orig.mp4?Expires=1773750429&Signature=j4KlCcPE1gVwO9ZIlJuJe3flHSEnGmRlN94zLVxtDg50cFlzi9sbeUXoGrNmj8fUVZf4OwDDdXwlN0DFYto51yzYQvN736WydJPqS3mtTqM8Z17~QliFqOhWuUez9cBqgsMtpM6yVfZ1sORDtP5DYt2VMTcPw89d90WIUstYKou28ee3vcNdga48PxhTblsNak7Z3W0bZj0lV-7g93R1Gos6tGsJOwIS3co4Ukx6mKvMJmL-zowB7Ile~U65IGpnYx37sHMGlufO9SCltYPne4bJjJbL9z7zbQT2cNWk-VQkZsjn0b-utK0azBF9fTjG04mw7Jc7WYHGFg99NVZpzw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Kansas House Committee on Transportation passed SB 97 out favorably after staff summarized the bill's requirement that vehicle dealers obtain a dealer inventory title for used all‑terrain vehicles, worksite utility vehicles, recreational off‑highway vehicles and motorcycles.

Committee staff member Chris told the committee that the title would be applied for when the vehicles are obtained or upon sale or transfer and that the fee would be $10. Chris said those fees \"would be deposited similarly to certificate of titles under KSA 8‑145b.\" He offered to answer questions and none were raised that changed the bill text in committee.

A member moved to pass SB 97 out favorably and the motion was seconded by Representative Bojai. Representative Helgerson closed.

Committee carrier Representative Ford moved the amendment to specify the 501(c)(3) as the recipient and said she reviewed the organization's websites to confirm both entities exist. \"5 0 1 c threes can still, do some advocacy work and outreach in the political sphere, but they can't give funds directly to candidates and and do that express advocacy in in that way,\" Ford said, arguing the change would limit the plate's use for direct candidate contributions.

Why it matters: Committee members who opposed the amendment said they preferred to send the bill to the full legislature unchanged so the entire body could decide the issue. Representative Proctor said the committee has tried to remain nonpartisan and that the body should consider the request as submitted. Members supporting the amendment, including Representative Vaughn, raised concerns that allowing funds to flow to a 501(c)(4) could facilitate taxpayer‑facilitated express advocacy.

The committee debated whether past specialty‑plate funds have gone to 501(c)(4) groups and whether the state has previously changed designated recipients; staff said recipients vary by plate and that a deeper review would be required to list which recipients held which tax classifications. During debate, members referenced past controversies involving politically sensitive plates, including discussion of a Gadsden flag plate in prior sessions.

The amendment carried on a recorded voice/hand count, 8 to 7. After the amendment passed, Representative Helgerson seconded a motion to pass SB 18 out favorably as amended; the committee approved the bill (no roll-call tally provided in the transcript).

The committee chair closed the meeting after passing SB 18 and noted there may be a later meeting to approve minutes.","The Kansas House Committee on Transportation voted 8–7 to amend SB 18 to direct revenue from a proposed Hunter Nation specialty license plate to Hunter Nation Foundation, a 501(c)(3), rather than Hunter Nation Incorporated, a 501(c)(4); the committee then passed the bill out favorably as amended.","actionData","errors"]
