Update On Ohio's "Firearm Preemption" Law
Ohio's "firearm preemption" law, in Ohio Revised Code 9.68, makes it illegal for local subdivisions to regulate "any firearm, part of a firearm, its components, and its ammunition." So preemption basically means the state of Ohio, as the bigger entity, has sole and exclusive authority to write and make laws on gun regulation. Otherwise what happens is, let's say Columbus passes a law about regulating firearms beyond the state of Ohio's laws. The state of Ohio says you can't do this.But there are numerous cities around Ohio that are not following this Ohio Revised Code 9.68. And are being sued. And this has led to a Fairfield County judge granting the state’s request for a temporary restraining order to halt the enforcement of Columbus' newly enacted gun restrictions.Plus more about SHOT Show 2023.
