Ohio General Assembly

Ohio's bicameral state legislature — the 99-member House and 33-member Senate. Republicans hold supermajorities in both chambers, a gap between the Statehouse and a statewide electorate that has voted for Reproductive Rights in Ohio and against gerrymandered maps.

Why it matters

The legislature writes state law, sets the budget, and has repeatedly clashed with ballot-measure majorities. Its supermajority is itself partly a product of Redistricting (Ohio) and Gerrymandering.
