    Plates issued under this Section shall expire according to

Chicago Police Memorial Foundation Fund and $15 shall be
deposited into the Secretary of State Special License Plate
Fund, to be used by the Secretary to help defray the

police officers killed or catastrophically injured in the line
of duty, providing financial assistance to police officers and
