Summary

Senate Bill 374 would amend Ohio Revised Code section 122.175 so that no new data center sales tax exemptions could be granted. The bill was introduced on 11 March 2026 and sent to the Senate Finance Committee on 25 March 2026. The status page opened on 23 September 2026 shows no later action. It is a pending proposal, not law.

What this does not establish

  • The bill text was not re-read for this record; the scope comes from the bill's official short and long titles.
  • The status page shows no action after the committee referral. The bill is recorded as pending, not as failed.
  • The statute the bill would amend is the separate record oh-orc-122175-data-center-exemption.

Unresolved questions

  • Whether the Senate Finance Committee will act on the bill before the 136th General Assembly ends.

Relationships

Supersession means a later instrument replaces the earlier legal effect. Repeal links identify the repeal instrument and the measure it ends. A later implementation or related letter is not treated as a replacement unless the record says so.
