Ohio House and Senate finished their work as the 131st General Assembly

The Ohio House and Senate finished their work as the 131st General Assembly with back-to-back-to-back marathon sessions — passing a flurry of bills. Some were mundane, while others made headlines. Among the legislation included the 20-week abortion ban along with the bill to pause the state’s green energy standards again. The chambers agreed to pass an unemployment compensation stopgap, a symbolic first step towards overhauling the system. The House decided to toss the legislation that designated gun owners as a protected class, but lawmakers passed a bill to allow concealed carry on college campuses and daycares.
