Section 5. The Illinois Vehicle Code is amended by changing Section 3-405.2 as follows:

(625 ILCS 5/3-405.2) (from Ch. 95 1/2, par. 3-405.2)

Sec. 3-405.2. Improper plates. The Secretary of State shall refuse to issue any license plates bearing a combination of letters or numbers, or both, which creates a potential duplication or, in the opinion of the Secretary, (1) would substantially interfere with plate identification for law enforcement purposes, (2) is misleading, or (3) creates a connotation that is offensive to good taste and decency, including any license plate bearing a reference to an organization or person included on the Federal Bureau of Investigation's or United States Department of Homeland Security's domestic and international terrorist lists.

The Secretary may revoke any such plates issued previously. Any person who has his or her plates revoked under this Section may acquire at no charge new plates and any required stickers of the same category and for the same period of registration.
