Subject: | USA Semiquincentennial Registration Plates |
In the very near future, we will be introducing legislation to allocate a portion of the fee from the sale of the special USA semiquincentennial registration plate to the Pennsylvania Commission for the U.S. Semiquincentennial. Specifically, our legislation will direct $25 of the total plate fee of $52 to a restricted account in the PA State Treasury where it then can be utilized by the Commission for activities related to the semiquincentennial. 2026 marks the 250th anniversary of our nation’s founding. America250 is the largest and most inclusive celebration in our nation’s history. In preparation for this historic event, Congress established the nonpartisan, nonpolitical, U.S. Semiquincentennial Commission to inspire Americans to participate in the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States. The U.S. Commission and its state affiliate, the Pennsylvania Commission for the U.S. Semiquincentennial, have been working with public and private entities across the country to make America250 a momentous event. We hope that you will join us in co-sponsoring this legislation. |
