Ohio HB 430 (2022) — preempts local SOI ordinances

Ohio HB 430 (2022) — preempts local SOI ordinances

Ohio has no source-of-income protection. HB 430 (2022) preempts new local SOI ordinances, and the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights (2024) documented widespread SOI discrimination in Cleveland. Cleveland Heights, South Euclid, and University Heights each passed local ordinances before HB 430 and continue to enforce them, but post-HB-430 legal standing is uncertain.
