Kansas Governor Reverses Course on Controversial License Plate Design

Kansas Governor Laura Kelly has announced that production of a new license plate design will be halted following widespread criticism. The current design, unveiled last week, received bipartisan backlash for its bright yellow color and resemblance to the New York license plate. Kelly's office plans to involve Kansans in the decision-making process by allowing them to vote for their favorite design. The governor emphasized the importance of a license plate being easy to read and stated that the new design should be "crisp and clean." The transition from embossed to print-on-demand plates may cause a delay of up to six months.
