AI Summary

This bill establishes Donate Life special license plates for vehicles such as passenger automobiles, non-commercial one-ton pickup trucks, motorcycles, and recreational vehicles. Drivers who want these plates must pay the standard special plate fee, registration tax, and contribute a minimum of $25 annually to an organ and tissue donation account. The license plates will feature a nationally standard organ, eye, and tissue donation logo with the inscription "Donate Life". Motorists can transfer these special plates to another qualifying vehicle registered to the same person for a $5 transfer fee. Contributions collected will be deposited into a special revenue fund and will first cover administrative costs, with remaining funds going to LifeSource, a nonprofit organization that supports organ, eye, and tissue donation activities, including maintaining donation registries, providing education, and conducting outreach. The new Donate Life license plates will become available starting January 1, 2026.
