Ohio budget institutes 2-for-1 regulatory requirements (2019)
Ohio Governor Mike DeWine (R) signed a bipartisan, two-year budget on July 18, 2019, that requires state administrative agencies to cut two regulations for each new regulation issued.[1]
The new requirement codifies the intent of President Donald Trump’s (R) Executive Order 13771, which requires federal administrative agencies to eliminate two old regulations in order to promulgate a new regulation.[2]
The budget also requires each state agency to create an inventory of its regulations.[1]
Ohio’s regulatory code includes an estimated 247,000 regulations—roughly 100,000 more regulations than the average state, according to an analysis by the Mercatus Center.[3]
