Summary

The bill amends Ohio’s public‑records law to add a new exemption that keeps the residential and familial details of designated public service workers—specifically mental‑health clinicians and social workers—private. By removing that information from the definition of a public record, the measure aims to protect the privacy and safety of these professionals. It is currently referred to a committee for further consideration.
