paper tag nation

It’s been almost two years since NBC 5 Investigates began investigating the widespread fraud involving Texas paper license plates. And it will be two more years before those tags are gone from Texas streets, now that Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has signed a law that will replace paper tags with metal license plates.

Gov Greg Abbott (R) signed HB718 into law Monday bringing an end to the state’s troubled temporary paper license tag system.

Texas is one step away from eliminating paper license plates.
