Eliminate additional registration fee for hybrid motor vehicles

Maddy summaryHB 389 eliminates an extra registration fee currently charged for hybrid motor vehicles in Ohio. It directly affects owners of hybrid cars and light trucks who would no longer pay this additional cost on top of standard vehicle registration. The bill amends specific sections of Ohio's Revised Code to remove this fee requirement from the registration process. This change simplifies registration costs for hybrid vehicle owners without altering other registration rules.

Require eviction records to be sealed after three years

Maddy summaryHB 368 requires eviction records to be automatically sealed (removed from public access) after three years. This directly affects tenants who have faced eviction proceedings, as it limits how long such records remain visible to landlords, employers, or others conducting background checks. The bill creates a specific process under Ohio law (section 1923.111) to ensure records are sealed without requiring tenants to take additional action. This policy change aims to provide individuals with a clearer path to housing stability by reducing long-term barriers from past eviction history.

HousingSupports HousingThe bill seals eviction records, protecting tenants from long-term negative impacts on housing access by limiting visibility to future landlords, thus strengthening tenant protections.95% confidence Labor & EmploymentSupports Labor & EmploymentThe bill limits the visibility of eviction records to employers during background checks, thereby removing a potential barrier to employment for individuals and supporting their ability to secure work.80% confidence TechnologySupports TechnologyThe bill seals eviction records, limiting public access to personal data, which directly aligns with protecting data privacy, a key aspect of the Technology topic.80% confidence
