LaRose issues statement on passage of SB 98

Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose issued the following statement on the passage of Senate Bill 98, legislation to protect Ohio entrepreneurs:

“Our goal is clear, to make Ohio the best state in the nation to start and grow a business, and that includes looking out for our entrepreneurs. As fraud and business scams continue to rise nationwide, Senate Bill 98 will take a monumental step toward increasing our ability to crack down on the bad actors trying to rip off Ohio’s job creators.

“Thank you to the Ohio General Assembly for passing this important legislation and sending a message that fraud is not tolerated in the Buckeye State.”
