Thanks to Today’s Meeting Sponsor: Page 2 of 203 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE JANUARY 7, 2011 Governor-elect Kasich Names Senior Staff COLUMBUS – Today Governor-elect John Kasich announced additional appointments to his staff. He previously named Beth Hansen to serve as Chief of Staff and Wayne Struble to serve as Director of Policy. Matt Carle will serve as Director of Legislative Affairs where he will help develop the governor’s policy agenda and secure its support in the General Assembly. Carle also will work with cabinet directors on legislative issues in state agencies. He previously served as the Director of Development and Community Relations for the Ohio College Access Network (OCAN) and worked as a real estate development and zoning lawyer. Carle has a bachelor’s degree from The Ohio State University and a law degree from Capital University Law School. He lives with his wife, Janette, in Gahanna. Matt Carle Director, Legislative Affairs at Governor's Office [email protected] Office: 614-644-0856 Page 3 of 203 Senator Bill Seitz 8th Senate District A lifelong resident of Western Hamilton County, State Senator Bill Seitz has worked to represent the best interests of the Greater Cincinnati area at the Statehouse. Known for his colorful floor speeches and legal acumen, in a ranking of all 132 legislators published by Columbus Monthly Magazine, Seitz was rated best speechmaker, funniest and was recognized for his effectiveness, his knowledge and his hard work. He has put these talents to good use on issues that matter to his constituents. Seitz began his public service career as a member of the Cincinnati Board of Education and the St. Antoninus Parish Education Commission. He was twice elected Green Township Trustee, where he also served as President of the Hamilton County Township Association. He has never forgotten his local government roots nor wavered in his belief that government governs best when closest to the people. Prior to joining the Ohio Senate in 2007, Seitz served in the Ohio House of Representatives for seven years. There, he rose through the ranks, serving as Majority Whip and Assistant Majority Whip and chair of the Civil and Commercial Law Committee. In the Senate, Seitz serves as Chairman of the Public Utilities Committee and Vice-Chairman of the Criminal Justice Committee. He has also been named to the Transportation Committee, the State Government Oversight & Reform Committee, the Civil Justice Committee, the Commerce & Labor Committee and the Finance Subcommittee on General Government. A fiscal conservative, Seitz is a champion of government efficiency. While others in Columbus talk about reducing the size of state government, Senator Seitz has put tangible ideas on the table, including now-enacted proposals that would reduce prison overcrowding and save the state $578 million through 2015. Throughout his legislative career, Senator Seitz has been at the forefront of criminal and civil justice issues, leading the effort to reform Ohio's criminal sentencing laws and eliminate the barriers to employment many non- violent offenders face following their release from prison. He has also worked to enhance penalties for violent offenders and to keep sex predators away from our children. He was the key architect of Ohio's sweeping tort reforms by which nearly two dozen such bills between 2001-2004 transformed Ohio's civil justice landscape and The Ohio Statehouse Columbus, Ohio 43215 (614) 466-8068 [email protected] Page 4 of 203 made Ohio more business-friendly. In these endeavors, he has been aided by his legal background. Seitz is a partner in the Taft, Stettinius and Hollister law firm, with which he has been associated since 1978, and for the last several years, he has been listed in the Best Lawyers in America book. Throughout his adult life, and despite increasing responsibilities in Columbus, Seitz has served organizations that promote livable neighborhoods and strong local communities. He served as President of the Westwood Civic Association and the Western Economic Council; Secretary of the Bridgetown Civic Association; a Cincinnati Recreation Commission Commissioner, and a trustee of Invest in Neighborhoods. He remains active with the Price Hill/Western Hills Kiwanis Club and has also been a strong supporter of law enforcement as a member of the Fraternal Order of Police Associates and past president and secretary of the Cincinnati District 3 Police- Community Relations Committee. Senator Seitz is an alumnus of the University of Cincinnati, where he graduated summa cum laude with an undergraduate degree in history. He also earned his Juris Doctorate from the University of Cincinnati College of Law, where he distinguished himself as a member of the Order of the Coif and was selected to the Law Review. Page 5 of 203 Public Policy “Hot Topics” March 6, 2013 Overview State lawmakers returned to the statehouse for a brief post-election session in November. The 130th General Assembly convened in early January. Having appointed leaders, committee chairs and set a calendar (all attached), the House and Senate have introduced over 100 bills and resolutions already. State budget legislation containing tax reform and Medicaid coverage expansion will consume statehouse business through June. 130th General Assembly See attached list of House and Senate elected leaders. In the House, Speaker William G. “Bill” Batchelder is now joined by Matt Huffman as Speaker ProTem. Both men are term-limited. The race to succeed them in leading the House majority caucus is on. Speaker Batchelder created a new standing committee on Manufacturing and Workforce Development, led by Kirk Schuring, who chaired the House 21st Century Manufacturing Task Force. Keith Faber assumed the Presidency of the Senate and is joined by a new leadership team (see attached). Senator Faber was just reelected to a second full term that will expire December 2016 allowing for more continuity. Former Senate President Niehaus served as president for two years. Priority Legislation Traditionally the top ten bills introduced by the House and Senate are dubbed “priority legislation” to reflect the top priorities of the caucuses. No less than four of the priority bills attempt to improve workforce development infrastructure. See attached list summary. Main Operating Budget On February 4, Governor Kasich unveiled his executive budget proposal, coined the Ohio Jobs Budget 2.0. Introduced formally as HB 59, the bill contains sweeping changes to Ohio tax law, Medicaid, and education. Hundreds of other impactful policy changes will be included before the House and Senate complete their work. The state’s fiscal year begins on July 1; therefore HB 59 is expected to be completed in June. See separate article on Tax Reform and see tax section of meeting materials. Transportation Budget While most public programs are funded by the main operating budget, transportation and highway safety (ODOT and Department of Public Safety) are funded in dedicated budget bill. Considered in tandem with the transportation budget is HB 51 to make changes to the Ohio turnpike, most notably borrowing money against the turnpike to fund roadway infrastructure projects. HB 51 and HB 35 were approved by the House last week. The transportation sub-committee (of the House Finance Committee) added a provision to hike truck weights on Ohio roadways. The OMA is supportive of the amendment and working to enhance in the Senate. Member engagement will be needed to preserve the provision in the face of opposition by railroad interests. Workers’ Comp & Industrial Commission Budget(s) The Bureau of Workers’ Compensation and the Industrial Commission are not included in the state’s operating budget bill. Both agencies have their own budget bills. These bills were Page 6 of 203 introduced in the middle of February and have been voted out of the House.

  • Lobbyists— Affluence & Influence?
    Catherine Turcer Judith Richards Leontien Kennedy 1 Lobbyists— Affluence & Influence? Lobbyists advocate for a variety of clients— from corporations to trade organizations to non- profit organizations. At the end of 2010, there were 1,175 individuals registered as legislative agents or lobbyists with the Ohio Joint Legislative Inspector General. Nearly 85% (995 of the 1,175 registered legislative lobbyists) reported lobbying on the operating budget—House Bill 1. Eight of the ten bills with the largest number of lobbyists passed one or both Houses during the 128th General Assembly. However, lobbyists are required to identify bills that they seek to influence, but they are not required to identify whether they are in favor of the bill. This means that it is impossible to tell whether lobbyists are attempting to move, stall, or amend legislation. This study explores the role of lobbyists and their influence on the legislative process by examining campaign contributions. It examines contributions to statewide and legislative candidates from January 1, 2009 – December 3, 2010 from registered lobbyists, political action committees associated with registered employers of lobbyists, and contributions from lobbying firms and law firms that specialize in government relations. It also examines activities reported to the Joint Legislative Ethics Committee gifts: meals and conferences. While lobbyists’ “wining and dining” and contributions at fundraisers greases access to members of the House and Senate, some prominent lobbyists have a built-in advantage— they are former legislators. Sixteen former legislators are "contract" lobbyists; they advocate for clients on a contractual basis. The other seventeen former legislators are "in-house" lobbyists and advocate for only one client.

  • A Report from the League of Women Voters of Ohio Examining 2011 Gerrymandering and 2012 Election Results
    A Report from the League of Women Voters of Ohio Examining 2011 Gerrymandering and 2012 Election Results In 2011, the Ohio General Assembly redrew district boundary lines for Ohio’s U.S. Congressional districts, and the Ohio Apportionment Board1 redrew district boundary lines for Ohio’s state General Assembly districts. There were three major criticisms of the final maps. Each district was drawn to favor either the majority Republican Party or the minority Democratic Party, and the makeup of the new districts essentially determined the outcome of the election. Another criticism was that the districts had been drawn to disproportionately favor the political party controlling the redistricting process. A third criticism was that districts were not compact and instead twisted over a wide geographic area. A visual inspection of the maps bears this out. 2 All three outcomes are consistent with Ohio’s current map drawing process that grants broad discretion to members of the majority political party to fashion districts favorable to its interests. 1 The Ohio Apportionment Board is defined in Article 11, Section 1 of the Ohio Constitution. It is a five-member board made up of the governor, auditor of state, secretary of state, and one member of the General Assembly of each major political party. The constitution charges the Apportionment Board with drawing districts for the state legislature. In the 2011 redistricting process, four of the five members were Republican and one was a Democrat. 2 Maps, as approved are attached at the end of this
