✔️ HB489
Eliminate state contract requirement re: jurisdictional boycott
Current Status: In House Committee (General Government)
Summary
The bill repeals section 9.76 of the Revised Code, which required state contracts to include a provision stating that the contracting company is not boycotting any jurisdiction, including Israel, and will not do so during the contract period.
Rationale
The bill aligns with the principles of both the Libertarian Party and the Libertarian Party of Ohio by promoting free market principles and reducing government interference in contracts. It removes a requirement that could be seen as a restriction on the freedom to contract.
