Summary

The bill amends the Compliance Supplemental Appropriation Act so that a portion of the state share of instruction funds for each public higher‑education institution is held back unless the school meets a series of reporting and policy requirements. Colleges must certify compliance, disclose changes to diversity, equity and inclusion positions, adopt faculty workload and tenure policies, and establish retrenchment procedures; any failure triggers a permanent withholding of the earmarked funds. The goal is to increase fiscal accountability and transparency across Ohio's state colleges and universities.
