The bill amends the Michigan Vehicle Code by adding a new section, 811kk, which mandates the development and issuance of a fund-raising license plate dedicated to prostate cancer awareness. The Secretary of State is tasked with creating the design of these plates in collaboration with the P.C.U.P.S. Foundation.
Additionally, the bill establishes a prostate cancer awareness fund within the state treasury, allowing the state treasurer to receive and manage donations from the sale of the fund-raising plates. The fund will not lapse to the general fund at the end of the fiscal year, and the state treasurer is responsible for disbursing funds to the P.C.U.P.S. Foundation on a quarterly basis. This legislation is set to take effect 90 days after being enacted into law.
