HB 658 Ohio House · 135th Legislature (2023-2024)

Create the Ohio Craft Brewers license plate

HB 658 creates a new specialty license plate in Ohio for craft brewers, allowing vehicle owners to purchase the plate and contribute money to a designated fund. The bill directs these contributions to a wide variety of organizations, including health foundations focused on cancer and sickle cell disease, educational groups like 4-H and Future Farmers of America, and several universities that will award scholarships to Ohio residents. Additionally, the legislation allocates funds to support autism awareness, special Olympics programs, and research initiatives for childhood and brain cancers. By establishing this plate, the bill provides a mechanism for drivers to financially support these specific causes through their vehicle registration.
