Introduced Text

Establishes a Medal of Fidelity license plate for Massachusetts residents who have received the Medal of Fidelity.

The bill amends Massachusetts law to create a Medal of Fidelity license plate for private passenger motor vehicles. The license plate will be awarded free of charge to owners who have received the Medal of Fidelity, a recognition given to relatives of fallen service members. The bill mandates that the registrar of motor vehicles notify past recipients of the Medal of Fidelity about their eligibility for the license plate. The plate will feature an image of the medal and ribbon, with the words "MEDAL OF FIDELITY" along the bottom.
