Ohio HB284 mandates the use of US-produced iron and steel on state-funded projects.

Ohio HB284 amends the state's Revised Code to require the use of iron and steel products produced in the United States for all state-funded projects. This includes buildings, structures, infrastructure, and higher education projects. The bill also mandates that all bid notifications and specifications include a notice about the domestic iron and steel use requirements. Violations of this requirement result in a civil penalty. The executive director of the Ohio facilities construction commission can investigate and request the attorney general to take action against violators.
