Several bills introduced in Wisconsin in 2018 are now dead as they failed to pass before the legislative deadline for action.

Several bills introduced in Wisconsin in 2018 are now dead as they failed to pass before the legislative deadline for action. Two bills (A.B. 554/S.B. 458) to allow vehicles manufactured without a front license-plate bracket and collectors’ special-interest vehicles the option to display only a single license plate on the rear of the vehicle died.

A bill (S.B. 647) to eliminate the requirement of buyer identification cards to purchase vehicles from the salvage vehicle pool also died.

Finally, legislation (S.B. 864) to permit half-track former military vehicles to be registered as special interest vehicles died.
