Summary

The bill changes Ohio law so that the state, not cities or counties, controls all aspects of selling, licensing, and enforcing tobacco, nicotine and electronic smoking products. It also forces schools to ban smoking and tobacco use on their grounds and lets business owners label their premises as nonsmoking. By doing so, the measure aims for uniform regulation across the state.
