Richard M. Markus does not mince words. “The Ohio State Bar Association,” he says, “provides greater services to its members than any other organization.” Markus, who was president of the Association in 1991 –1992 , retired from his position as senior litigator for Porter Wright Morris and Arthur, Cleveland, in 1998 and works now about half-time, serving on the bench in 27 counties throughout the state. He goes on to say of the Association, “Its activities are unheard of in other states.” Ohio lawyers and other legal professionals generally agree with this characterization of the Ohio State Bar Association. The voluntary Association represents approximately 26 ,000 members of the bench and bar in Ohio, as well as nearly 5,000 law students and 550 paralegals. According to attorney Thomas M. Taggart, of counsel to Heather G. Sowald, Columbus, representative of the 2001–2004 OSBA Board Vorys, Sater, Seymour and Pease, Columbus, and president of the of Governors; OSBA president, 2004–2005. Asso ci ation for the 1997 –1998 term, the organization is “more entre preneurial and more forward-thinking in terms of services to its members than any other association I know. And it has been equally strong in thinking of ways to increase non-dues revenue …. A very significant percentage of Ohio lawyers look to it for all sorts of services.” At the ripe old age of 125 , the Association is more active than ever. The organization that had its beginnings in a meeting hall in Cleveland in March 1880 has evolved into one of the strongest bar associations in the United States with clear and comprehensive services for all attorneys who choose to join, with a commitment to providing the public with legal information— and with a vision for the future.

Ninety-two women were initially sworn in to the 112th Congress, two women Democratic House Members have since resigned, and four others have been elected. This number (94) is lower than the record number of 95 women who were initially elected to the 111th Congress. The first woman elected to Congress was Representative Jeannette Rankin (R-MT, 1917-1919, 1941-1943). The first woman to serve in the Senate was Rebecca Latimer Felton (D-GA). She was appointed in 1922 and served for only one day. A total of 278 women have served in Congress, 178 Democrats and 100 Republicans. Of these women, 239 (153 Democrats, 86 Republicans) have served only in the House of Representatives; 31 (19 Democrats, 12 Republicans) have served only in the Senate; and 8 (6 Democrats, 2 Republicans) have served in both houses. These figures include one non-voting Delegate each from Guam, Hawaii, the District of Columbia, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Currently serving Senator Barbara Mikulski (D-MD) holds the record for length of service by a woman in Congress with 35 years (10 of which were spent in the House).

These words ring just as true today.

  • House Bill 530 Budget Corrections & Capital Re-Appropriations
    House Bill 530 Budget Corrections & Capital Re-appropriations Capital re-appropriations from the 2005 / 2006 capital biennium (and some originating prior). These re-appropriations total roughly $1.7 billion and include projects undertaken after the passage of the last capital bill (HB 16 of the 126 th General Assembly) that have yet to be completed. This total is not out of line with historic reappropriations. A few selected agency totals include: Department of Administrative Services $ 75.9 million School Facilities Commission $ 351.2 million Board of Regents $ 488.3 million Department of Development $ 83.9 million Department of Natural Resources $ 112.5 million Public Works Commission $ 371.7 million Department of Rehab and Corrections $ 105.1 million Cultural Facilities Commission $ 40.9 million New capital appropriations for the 2007 / 2008 capital biennium. As the 126 th General Assembly’s upcoming capital bill likely will not be introduced until the fall, these appropriations are necessary for the orderly continuation of various programs or are of an emergency need.
