Rep. Jose Giral July 3, 2024 | 1:46 PM
HARRISBURG, July 3 – The Pennsylvania House of Representatives today passed comprehensive transportation-related legislation (H.B. 2301) that includes language from a bill sponsored by state Rep. Jose Giral, D-Phila., that would allow recipients of the Borinqueneers Congressional Gold Medal to apply for special state license plates designating their vehicles as belonging to honored veterans.
“The Congressional Gold Medal is one of the highest awards the United States bestows, and only a handful of military units have ever received this award,” Giral said. “It’s only right that we honor the distinguished recipients of the Borinqueneers Congressional Gold Medal with a special registration plate. They made great sacrifices for our country and deserve to be recognized and commemorated.”
The bill now goes to Gov. Josh Shapiro’s desk for his signature.
