The 136th General Assembly of Ohio has passed a concurrent resolution to rescind specific portions of Executive Order 2025-05D, which was issued by the Governor in response to a state of emergency concerning intoxicating hemp. This resolution is grounded in the authority granted to the General Assembly under Section 107.43 of the Revised Code, allowing them to overturn orders from statewide elected officials during emergencies. The executive order had permitted the Ohio Department of Agriculture to amend certain administrative rules on an emergency basis and imposed restrictions on the sale and display of consumer products containing intoxicating hemp.

The resolution specifically nullifies the Governor's directive that required retailers to remove intoxicating hemp products from public display, prohibited their sale during the emergency, and mandated that any such products in possession of retailers be segregated and disposed of in a lawful manner. The resolution concludes with a directive for the Clerk of the House of Representatives to send an authenticated copy of the resolution to the Governor, formalizing the legislative action taken against the executive order.
