Gregoire Taking Wildlife Plate Revenue?
« on: December 14, 2009, 05:04:41 PM »
Read an article in Yesterday's Spokeman Review that Gregoire has asked the WDFW to hand over the revenue generated from Wildlife Theme Plates.  This happened last Wednesday.  The plate sales were established to fund habitat restoration, wildlife management, protection, and (Endangered Species Recovery).  If you have one of these plates I would encourage you to reflect on the need for renewal.  I can believe that Olympia will swipe all this revenue except for the percentage earmarked for the (Endangered Species Recovery), which by twisted definition may now be whales and WOLVES.

   Coming and going..... It will most likely cost you $25 to replace them with standard plates. Remember the boguss law that says we need new plates every 5 years?

The article below..


License-plate fees eyed in budget woes

WILDLIFE – The extra fees Washington motorists pay for vehicle license plates with custom messages or wildlife backgrounds may be shifted from wildlife agency accounts to help balance the state’s budget.

On Wednesday, Gov. Chris Gregoire asked Fish and Wildlife Department officials to shift $1.5 million from the agency’s 17 dedicated accounts that hold $8 million for services such as improving habitat, managing game, protecting wildlife diversity, and maintaining site access.

Among those accounts are four with funds generated by vehicle license plates and dedicated to certain wildlife management priorities.

For example, more than $875,000 is in the account funded by people who buy plates with bear, deer or elk backgrounds, agency officials said.

Eagle and orca background plates accounts hold about $900,000 earmarked for wildlife diversity programs.

The Legislature will have the final word on how much if any of the license plate accounts can be spent on their intended programs.

I'm sure she has way better plans for our money, caring for illegals, extra meals and big screens for prisoners, a big year end party for all the natives who contributed to her. >:( :bash: >:( :bash: >:( :bash:

She is a very evil person.
