Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,

|
(625 ILCS 5/3-623) (from Ch. 95 1/2, par. 3-623)

Sec. 3-623. Purple Heart Plates. The Secretary, upon |
receipt of an
application made in the form prescribed by the |
Secretary of State, may
issue to recipients awarded the Purple |
Heart by a branch of the armed

Secretary, upon receipt of the proper application, may also |
issue these special registration plates to an Illinois resident |
who is the surviving spouse of a person who was killed in a |
foreign war and was awarded the Purple Heart by a branch of the |
armed forces of the United States. The special plates issued |

pounds.
|
The design and color of such plates shall be wholly within |
the discretion
of the Secretary of State. Appropriate |
documentation, as determined by the
Secretary, and the |
appropriate registration fee shall
accompany the application.
|
However, for an individual who has been issued Purple Heart |
plates for a
vehicle and who has been approved for benefits |
