He estimated it could save taxpayers nearly $6 million in production costs and new car buyers another $6 to $8 million in dealership fees. “A total savings to Nebraska drivers of up to $14 million,” he said.If signed into law, Nebraska would issue only one plate per vehicle instead of two. Von Gillern argued that many new cars are manufactured without front plate mounts, leaving owners to either pay for installation, opt for a windshield decal at an additional fee, or drill into their bumpers.He also noted potential environmental benefits, estimating that the state would use nearly 200 fewer tons of aluminum. “This is an effective and responsible measure,” he said, pointing out that 26 other states, including Missouri, Kansas, and Wyoming, have already moved to a single-plate system.Von Gillern added that law enforcement groups, including the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office and the Omaha Police Officers Association, have not opposed the change. He urged colleagues to support the amendment and advance LB 97.30 Lawmakers voted to attach AM507, but five opposed. LB97 advanced for more debate on a 38-0 vote.</div></body>
