OH SCR13

Declares the 134th General Assembly's intention to repeal Ohio's state personal income tax within ten years.

States that Ohio's individual income tax was first enacted in 1971 and became effective in 1972.

Cites that the Tax Foundation ranks Ohio 39th in its 2021 State Business Tax Climate Index, while all nine states without an individual income tax rank higher, including six in the top ten.

Notes that following the 2020 census, six states will gain at least one U.S. House seat (two of which have no income tax), while Ohio is one of seven states that will lose a seat, all of which impose income tax.

Requires the Ohio Senate Clerk to transmit an authenticated copy of the resolution to Ohio news media.
