The bill proposes the enactment of section 4503.472 of the Revised Code to establish the "Law Enforcement Purple Heart" license plate in Ohio. This new license plate will be available to individuals who have been awarded the law enforcement purple heart, allowing them to register various types of vehicles without the payment of registration and service fees, as well as local motor vehicle license taxes. The application process requires documentary evidence of the award, and if applicable, evidence of disability for those who wish to display the international symbol of access on their plates. The license plates will feature the inscription "LAW ENFORCEMENT PURPLE HEART" and will include county identification stickers.

Additionally, the bill includes provisions to prevent fraudulent representation of the law enforcement purple heart status, making it a misdemeanor for individuals to falsely claim eligibility for the license plates. It also stipulates that upon the transfer of ownership of a vehicle registered under this section after the owner's death, the law enforcement purple heart plates must be replaced with standard plates. Overall, the bill aims to honor law enforcement officers who have received this commendation while ensuring the integrity of the program.
