Maddy summaryThis bill requires Ohio public schools to create policies that ensure parents are notified about changes in their child's health services and have the right to review instructional materials containing sexuality content. It mandates that schools obtain parental consent before providing most health care services to students and prohibits educators from encouraging students to hide health-related information from their families.

Maddy summaryHB 50 creates a legal process for individuals facing housing restrictions due to past criminal convictions to apply for a certificate that can lift these barriers. This bill allows people who have completed their sentences or supervision periods to file a petition in court after a waiting period of six months for misdemeanors or one year for felonies. During the review, judges will consider the applicant's criminal history and any relevant factors, such as military service, before deciding whether to grant the certificate. While the text also mentions extending a construction act and modifying tax procedures, the primary focus is on providing a pathway for formerly incarcerated individuals to regain access to housing.
