The bill amends section 4501.21 and enacts section 4503.937 of the Revised Code to establish the "DoItForJack" specialty license plate in Ohio. It creates a license plate contribution fund within the state treasury, funded by contributions from motor vehicle registrants. The registrar of motor vehicles is responsible for distributing these contributions to various organizations focused on health, education, and community support. The bill also outlines specific allocations for contributions to ensure funds are directed to designated organizations for causes such as cancer research, educational programs, and community services.

Additionally, the bill mandates that contributions received by school districts and private schools must be allocated for tuition assistance and mental health services for students, with strict guidelines on their use. It specifies that any charitable organizations hired to provide these services must be tax-exempt under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The bill also includes provisions for the collection of contributions and administrative fees associated with the issuance of the "DoItForJack" license plates, ensuring that funds are used solely for their intended purposes and that the registration process aligns with existing laws. The existing section 4501.21 is repealed and replaced with a composite version to harmonize previous amendments.
