Maddy summaryThis bill creates a specialty license plate in Ohio named after Paul Laurence Dunbar High School, allowing vehicle owners to purchase the plate and contribute funds to a designated state fund. The money collected from these license plate sales will be deposited into the Paul Laurence Dunbar High School license plate contribution fund, which is managed by the state registrar of motor vehicles.
