Senate to vote on new special license plate for educators

Arizona already has 53 special license plates, but it may be getting another. Lawmakers are looking to create a so-called “extraordinary educators” special license plate to raise money for public school teachers. A senate committee is slated to vote today on a bill establishing the plate. The House already passed the measure in a 50-6 vote. It costs $32,000 to create a new plate, and if passed, proponents of the educators’ license plate would have until 2016 to raise the funds.
