This bill establishes a new category of special license plates in Minnesota, known as "Donate Life" special plates, aimed at promoting organ and tissue donation. The commissioner is required to issue these plates to applicants who meet specific criteria, including being a registered owner of certain types of vehicles, paying an additional fee, and contributing a minimum of $10 annually to the Donate Life account. The bill also mandates that the commissioner consult with Donate Life to create a suitable design for the plates.

Additionally, the bill outlines provisions for transferring the special plates to another vehicle, provided the new vehicle meets the same qualifications and is registered to the original owner. It exempts these special plates from certain existing regulations and establishes a Donate Life account within the special revenue fund, where contributions will be deposited. The funds will be appropriated annually for administrative costs and to support the mission of Donate Life. The provisions of this bill will take effect on January 1, 2026, for plates issued on or after that date.
