Bama fans lurking in the Pelican State's bayous won't get a chance to sport their team logo on a Louisiana driver's license.

Senate Bill 138 allowing for placement of state university logos on driver's licenses or ID cards passed favorably Wednesday (March 12) by the Senate transportation committee. But the bill, sponsored by Sen. Fred Mills Jr., R-New Iberia, didn't pass the first of a four-step process before it's signed into law without a critical amendment pitched by committee member Sen. David Heitmeier, D-New Orleans.

"I just don't want to see any University of Alabama (logos)," Heitmeier said, after proposing an amendment limiting the bill to logos of schools in Louisiana. Mills shot back, "I don't think they'd sell any, but I'm fine with it."

The bill was approved with the attached amendment, and will now go to the full Senate for a vote.






Afraid they would confuse them with the handicap licenses

Having solved all the state's major problems, the Senate tackles the critical school logo on DL issue.

I have an LSU Mississippi plate. I don't necessarily support it but if be a hypocrite to say I'm against it.

Would bring money to the state.

What an amazingly stupid bill. That is a huge waste of time for any state government.

Personally, I'm all for it, and the license plates. I'm all for undesirables being marked with a crimson letter, for the world to see.
