Establishes the native/pollinator planting fund, pollinator highway program, and distinctive license plate to promote native plant cultivation.

The bill establishes the native/pollinator planting fund and the pollinator highway program. It creates a distinctive native plant and pollinator license plate to promote the cultivation and maintenance of native flowering plants, grasses, and shrubs on state highways and public lands. The Department of Transportation will establish objectives for the program, including incorporating native plantings into green infrastructure solutions, enhancing habitats for pollinators, and improving soil health. The Department will also develop standards for selecting and maintaining native vegetation.
