AI Summary
This bill amends various sections of the Ohio Revised Code to limit regulatory restrictions in administrative rules. Specifically, it:
- Requires state agencies to review their existing rules and prepare an inventory of regulatory restrictions, and then reduce the total number of regulatory restrictions by 30% over a 3-year period.
- Gives the Joint Committee on Agency Rule Review the authority to determine if a proposed new rule would cause the state to exceed the overall limit on regulatory restrictions.
- Allows the Common Sense Initiative Office to direct agencies to eliminate specific regulatory restrictions that it determines are unnecessary.
- Makes various other changes to the process for reviewing and approving administrative rules, including requirements for agencies to justify rules that have an adverse impact on businesses or implement federal laws in a more stringent manner.
The bill also makes technical and corrective changes to the state's liquor laws, and appropriates funds to the Secretary of State for financial assistance to county boards of elections for the 2022 primary election.
