Ohio HB602 limits the types of flags state agencies can display to authorized flags.

Ohio HB602 amends the Revised Code to restrict the types of flags that state agencies and entities managing state grounds or buildings can display. The bill defines "authorized flag" as the official state flag, the United States flag, the POW/MIA flag, or a flag with a state agency's official logo. Exceptions are made for the Ohio statehouse and its grounds. This change aims to standardize flag displays across state properties.
