Rep. Ingram pushes for new Cincinnati Public Schools license plates

State Rep. Catherine D. Ingram (D-Cincinnati) today introduced legislation with Rep. Brigid Kelly (D-Cincinnati) to create a new Cincinnati Public Schools (CPS) license plate in support of one of Ohio’s top school districts.

“For almost 200 years, Cincinnati Public Schools have educated, inspired and prepared generations to be civic-minded, intelligent and socially aware citizens,” said Ingram. “CPS is a diverse and historic district that serves 35,000 Cincinnati-area students every year, and deserves strong community support. I am proud to introduce legislation to help benefit this wonderful district.”

House Bill (HB) 328 will create the Cincinnati Public Schools license plate through the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles, which would offer the plates for sale through local registrars’ offices. Portions of the proceeds will go directly to CPS.

The school system is gathering the required 150 signatures necessary to create a custom license plate. If the request is reviewed and approved, CPS members will design the new license plate for purchase. Local residents interested in signing the petition can contact CPS Public Affairs at (513) 363-0020 or hessshe@cps-k12.org.

House Bill 328 now awaits committee assignment for further consideration.
