The governor of Ohio is the head of government of Ohio [2] and the commander-in-chief of the U.S. state's military forces. [3] The officeholder has a duty to enforce state laws, the power to either approve or veto bills passed by the Ohio General Assembly, [4] the power to convene the legislature [5] and the power to grant pardons, except in cases of treason and impeachment.
State executive orders are usually enacted less frequently than bills passed by state legislatures. They are especially used in the midst of a public health emergency or disaster. [2] During a state of emergency (which usually can only be declared through executive order), the powers of the governor may be expanded beyond their normal reach. [11]
