Key provisions include mandating staff training on drug administration, specifying when and how the drugs may be used, and requiring documentation of each administration. The bill aims to enable swift, life-saving interventions in school settings without requiring individual prescriptions for each incident. These changes apply to all public and private schools operating within Ohio.

HB 131 prohibits law enforcement agencies from setting or using numerical quotas for arrests and citations. This means police departments and other agencies would no longer be allowed to require officers to meet specific targets for the number of arrests or tickets they issue.

By banning quotas, the law aims to ensure that enforcement actions are based on individual circumstances rather than arbitrary numerical goals.
