The bill introduced by Senator Patton aims to enact section 109.70 of the Revised Code, which prohibits law enforcement agencies in Ohio from using quotas for arrests and citations. The new legal language defines key terms such as "law enforcement official or agency," "local or state police officer," and "quota." It explicitly states that no law enforcement official or agency can establish or maintain a quota system for evaluating, promoting, compensating, or disciplining police officers, nor can they require officers to meet quotas or offer rewards based on such quotas.

Additionally, the bill allows for the collection and analysis of arrest and citation data to ensure compliance with legal obligations, but it prohibits the use of this data to enforce quotas. The Attorney General is tasked with creating a reporting mechanism for officers to report violations of this law, and upon receiving a report, the Attorney General must investigate the allegations within a year. If violations are found, the Attorney General can order the offending agency to cease the use of quotas.
