The bill amends sections 4501.21 and 4503.733 of the Revised Code and enacts section 5534.90 to designate the bridge spanning the Grand River in Lake County as the "Specialist Jacob A. Ashton Memorial Bridge," honoring Specialist Jacob A. Ashton for his service. Additionally, it introduces changes to the "Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation" license plate, which will now be referred to as "Breakthrough T1D" license plates, and outlines the application process and fees associated with these plates. The bill also repeals the existing sections 4501.21 and 4503.733 of the Revised Code.

Furthermore, the bill details the distribution of contributions collected from specialty license plates by the registrar of motor vehicles, specifying that funds will be allocated to various organizations and initiatives, including educational institutions and health-related causes. Contributions must be used for designated purposes, such as tuition assistance and mental health services for students, while ensuring that no funds are utilized for political purposes. The bill mandates that any charitable organizations hired by educational institutions must be tax-exempt under subsection 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, promoting effective use of funds to enhance community support and educational initiatives across Ohio.
