April 2021 Monthly Legislative Update
Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission Monthly Legislative Update April 2021 Joseph Garrity Director of Government Affairs + Strategic Initiatives (614) 233-4127 [email protected] What’s Happening Governor Signs Transportation Budget Gov. Mike DeWine signed the more than $8 billion transportation budget bill last week. The governor highlighted $318 million included for highway safety projects, $2.4 billion for local roadway improvements and $8 million for electric vehicle charging station grants. Speaker Bob Cupp (R-Lima) called passage of the bill “a good day for the state of Ohio and people of Ohio,” adding that it was passed on time, within the available revenue, “and without a contentious conference committee.” The House action came one day after the Ohio Senate adopted an omnibus amendment to the bill and passed it on the floor in a 32-0 vote. The bill funds construction and maintenance of the state’s roadways and bridges, in addition to appropriating $70 million per year for public transit through a combination of General Revenue Fund and federal flex funds. However, Governor DeWine’s “Hands-Free Ohio” proposal to increase penalties for distracted driving was removed by the General Assembly upon final passage of the bill. This proposal may be brought forward as a standalone bill later this session. Transportation budgets generally must be passed by the end of March so the non-appropriations sections can become effective 90 days later, by July 1, the start of the new fiscal year.

Animal Law News
Vol. 1 Issue 1 Spring 2016 Published by the Ohio State Bar Association Animal Law Committee Animal Law News An elephant’s journey: How the laws and regulations affecting zoos have evolved leading to the modern zoo If we look back 60 years, which is the average lifespan of an African Elephant, we can witness the significant changes which have occurred in the approach to animal welfare at zoos. There are numerous regulations with which zoos must comply; however, more importantly, rigorous industry accreditation standards have been birthed, driving many zoos in a “race to the top” for excellence in animal care. Our country’s first approach to regulating zoos focused on the control of disease. From the late 1800s to the early 1900s, the Animal Quarantine Laws1 and the Lacey Act2 empowered the president and the Department of the Interior, respectively, to regulate the importation of animals that would threaten domestic animals or humans from disease or other harmful effects.

Senate Voucher Bill Limits Building Eligibility, Grows Income Threshold, Axes Lorain ADC
Ohio Capitol Connection 2/6/20, 1010 AM Senate Voucher Bill Limits Building Eligibility, Grows Income Threshold, Axes Lorain ADC The Senate passed a proposal Tuesday to prevent many school buildings from being added to the EdChoice eligibility list next year, while increasing the number of families eligible for income-based school vouchers. Meanwhile, the House preemptively scheduled a conference committee before the Senate had finalized its version. Lawmakers are scrambling to act before the EdChoice application period opens on Saturday, Feb. 1. Amendments adopted Tuesday for HB9 (Jones-Sweeney), a bill originally introduced to address college credit transferability, also would abolish the Lorain Academic Distress Commission at the end of this fiscal year. The bill passed the Senate 26-7, with a unanimous vote beforehand to maintain an emergency clause, allowing EdChoice changes to take effect immediately upon the governor's signature. The Senate Higher Education Committee met shortly after 6 p.m. to quickly adopt three amendments to HB9: one directed at the underlying purpose of the bill, one changing EdChoice eligibility, and one eliminating Lorain's distress commission. Two additional EdChoice-related amendments were added on the Senate floor. Under current law, the list of EdChoice eligible schools is set to grow to more than 1,200 in the coming school year, more than double its current number. The amendments accepted Tuesday would exempt for the next three school years any building with an overall report card grade of A, B or C, as well as those with a D that are not in the bottom 20 percent of the report card's Performance Index. -
Health Education Standards the Ohio Legislature Is
Support Senate Bill 121: Health Education Standards The Ohio legislature is currently considering Senate Bill 121, which would benefit students in Ohio. Specifically, the bill would allow the Ohio Department of Education to adopt health education standards. Local Matters strongly supports the implementation of health education standards in Ohio, as it lays an important foundation for nutrition education, among other health topics. The bill has bipartisan support and a diverse group of cosponsors. Notably, Senator Peggy Lehner, Chair of the Education Committee, where the bill is currently being heard, is a cosponsor of this important legislation. If you would like to show your support for Senate Bill 121, please contact the elected officials who sit on the Senate Education Committee (see below). If you have any questions about health education standards or the bill, please contact Noreen Warnock, Local Matters Co-founder and Director of Advocacy and Community: [email protected] or 614-263-5662. Key Talking Points: 1) Ohio is the only state in the country without health education standards for K-12 students. 2) Ohio currently faces a public health crisis. Over 33% of children in Ohio have enough excess weight to put them at risk of developing early onset diet-related diseases like diabetes and heart disease.1 3) Senate Bill 121 will help ensure students learn necessary skills to make healthy life choices, such as selecting healthy foods and engaging in physical activity. 4) The cost of healthcare in Ohio required to treat diet-related disease is estimated at $6.36 billion dollars.2 Children’s health complications will only increase economic and workforce burden as the generation ages. -
2018 Post-General Election Update
2018 post-general election update November 7, 2018 On Tuesday, November 6, 2018, Ohioans cast ballots in the 2018 general election. For the first time since 2006, five statewide elected offices were up for election without an incumbent running in the 2018 general election. Federal offices, including all Ohio U.S. Representatives seats and one U.S. Senate seat, two Ohio Supreme Court seats, all seats in the Ohio House of Representatives and 17 Ohio Senate seats were on the ballot. Many counties in Ohio and around the country reported record- breaking early voter turnout. Nearly 1.5 million ballots were requested by mail and in person, and an estimated 1.3 million had been cast as of the close of early voting on November 5, 2018. Here is Bricker & Eckler’s overview of the 2018 general election results and details on races of particular interest. STATEWIDE BALLOT ISSUES Issue 1: This proposed constitutional amendment was filed as the “Neighborhood Safety, Drug Treatment, and Rehabilitation Amendment.” If adopted, the amendment would have, among other things, required reductions in sentencing in certain situations, mandated that certain criminal offenses or uses of any drugs, such as fentanyl and heroin, can only be classified as a misdemeanor, and prohibited jail time as a sentence for obtaining, possessing or using such drugs until an individual’s third offense within 24 months. Issue 1 was defeated by 63.41 percent. The Ohio Safe and Healthy Communities Campaign led the way in support of the proposed constitutional amendment. Supporters of Issue 1 were financially supported by Open Society Policy Center, the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative and the Open Philanthropy Project Action Fund. -
