That sucks, but not surprising. Time to muster up opposition for the proposal. Good luck.

I just got in the mail black onyx SS letters for my front license plate cover. I do not want this to pass. I don't mind running a front plate on my van but no way on my Vette.

I will drop a call to my senator tomorrow.

I just received this response today from my local senator.

" I agree with you and oppose legislation that would require front license plates. Whether it is for red light cameras or a back door way to raise more money for roads I don’t like it. Thank you for emailing me with your concerns. I will monitor this legislation closely. Sincerely, Jack Brandenburg"

It's too expensive, the state won't approve it and the gov would veto it. I don't worry.
