EXPLANATION OF IMPACT:

Enactment of this bill would have no fiscal impact on the General Fund of the State nor on federal and/or other funds.

LOCAL GOVERNMENT IMPACT:

There are currently 1,000 Purple Heart license plates issued by the Department of Public Safety statewide. Further, there are 269 incorporated municipalities in South Carolina.
