Committee votes during work session: highway designation, veteran license plates, vehicle inspection measure advance
Summary
In a brief work session the Assembly Committee on Growth and Infrastructure amended and voted to do pass three measures: AB 110 (highway designation), AB 409 (special license plates for veterans and related changes) and AB 417 (vehicle inspections and registration cancellation related to impoundments).
During the committee’s work session the panel considered three bills and the committee adopted motions to amend and do pass each measure.
AB 110 — Highway designation: Keely Latham of the Legislative Counsel Bureau summarized Assembly Bill 110, which designates State Route 163 as the Colorado River Highway and names the bridge to Bullhead City, Arizona, the Donald J. Laughlin Memorial Bridge. A proposed amendment would add Senator Stone as a primary joint sponsor. The committee accepted a motion to amend and do pass AB 110; the motion carried by voice vote and the floor statement was assigned to Assemblymember Gallant.
AB 409 — Special license plates: Haley Latham (LCB) summarized Assembly Bill 409, which would require the DMV to issue special plates supporting outreach and services for veterans and to allow issuance of plates for Space Force veterans and certain family members; an amendment would also add recognition of recipients of the Air Force Cross, Coast Guard Cross, Distinguished Service Cross, and Navy Cross, and add Assemblymember Gray as a primary sponsor. The committee accepted a motion to amend and do pass AB 409; the motion carried by voice vote and the floor statement was assigned to Minority Leader Haytham.
AB 417 — Vehicle inspections and impoundment orders: Keely Latham (LCB) summarized Assembly Bill 417, which revises public-safety provisions to require peace officers to inspect vehicles suspected in unauthorized speed contests or trick driving, provides reporting requirements to DMV, and adapts procedures governing court-ordered impoundments and registration cancellation pending safety inspection; an amendment would allow the DMV to grant an extension of up to 60 days in certain circumstances. The committee accepted a motion to amend and do pass AB 417; the motion carried by voice vote and the floor statement was assigned to Assemblymember Hunt.
Each motion passed by a voice vote in the committee; the committee recorded no roll-call tallies in the transcript. Committee staff noted proposed amendments were posted. These items will be carried forward to the floor with the committee’s do-pass recommendations.
