These 12 New Ohio Laws Are Insane (In A GOOD Way)!

One line on your Ohio property tax bill hasn't moved since 1979, back when Jimmy Carter was in the White House. It's finally about to climb, and the state isn't the one paying for it. That's the last law on this list. Eleven more sit on top of it. One bans 40-year contracts on houses. One pulls an Indiana coal plant off your electric bill. One gets a 65-year-old a lifetime fishing license for $81. These are the new Ohio laws 2026 is putting in your pile, counted up from one to twelve. Along the way: the camera tickets counties and townships can't mail you anymore, catalytic converter theft as a felony on a first offense, the signed disclosure a we-buy-houses wholesaler now owes you before you sign, hospital prices posted in dollars and cents, a state license for the pharmacy middlemen, Ohio's new flat income tax, a cap on the property tax nobody votes on, and a one-time cut on the January bill for homeowners on the homestead exemption. Then the senior protections Ohio still hasn't passed. Which bill in your pile changed first, the electric bill, the license, or the property tax bill? Tell me below, and what county it came from.
