The bill amends Section 1135.5 of Title 47 of the Oklahoma Statutes to enhance the issuance of special license plates, allowing individuals to show support for various causes such as education, environmental awareness, and public safety. It authorizes Service Oklahoma to design and issue these plates, while establishing a system for licensed operators to process applications and confirm eligibility. Key changes include the replacement of the term "Serve" with "Service" in relation to the Oklahoma Tourism and Recreation Department's involvement in the Oklahoma State Parks Supporter License Plate. The bill also specifies the fees associated with each plate and their allocation to various funds, including the Oklahoma Tourism and Recreation Department Revolving Fund and the Choose Life Assistance Program Revolving Fund.

Additionally, the bill introduces a range of specialty license plates supporting organizations and causes, such as the Oklahoma Lions Service Foundation and the Girl Scouts of the United States of America, with each plate featuring the respective organization's logo. Licensing agreements will stipulate that a portion of the fees collected will benefit these organizations or designated funds. The bill also establishes new licensing agreements for organizations like the Diabetes Solutions of Oklahoma and local school districts, with a maximum fee of $20 per plate. The annual renewal fee for these plates is set at $35, with specific allocations for various funds. The act is scheduled to take effect on November 1, 2025.
