OH HB297

Establishes the Firearms Industry Nondiscrimination Act requiring governmental entities to include written verification in contracts that companies do not discriminate against firearm entities or trade associations.

Applies only to contracts between governmental entities and companies with ten or more full-time employees valued at $100,000 or more paid from public funds, entered after the bill's effective date.

Defines "firearm entity" as shooting ranges or manufacturers, distributors, wholesalers, suppliers, and retailers of firearms, firearm accessories, or ammunition.

Requires companies to certify they have no internal practices, policies, guidance, or directives—written or unwritten—that discriminate against firearm entities or firearm trade associations and will not discriminate during the contract term.

Includes a severability clause allowing the law to remain valid if any individual provision is held invalid.
