  • Call to Action – House Bill 266 Eliminate the Statute of Limitations for Rape I
    Call to Action – House Bill 266 Eliminate the Statute of Limitations for Rape I. Contents a. The Bill i. Background ii. Current Status b. Action Steps for House Committee Members & Leadership i. Contact Lawmakers and Ask for Support 1. Phone Script 2. Template Email ii. Requesting and Holding Meetings c. Appendix A: Finding Your Lawmaker d. Appendix B: Contact Information for Members of Leadership and House Criminal Justice Committee e. Appendix C: Contact Information for House Leadership II. Background The Statute of Limitations for § 2907.02 Rape is 25 years, with the following exceptions: o If 25 years has lapsed, but a DNA record in a § 2907.02 investigation is found to match another DNA record, the prosecution may bring the criminal action within 5 years; or o If 25 years has not lapsed, and a DNA record in a § 2907.02 investigation is found to match another DNA record, the prosecution may bring the criminal action within 25 years of the rape or 5 five years of the match, whichever is later. ORC § 2907.02 Rape creates an exemption from culpability for perpetrators who are married to their victim (this is commonly referred to as Ohio’s Marital Rape Exemption). Note that though the marital rape exemption to § 2907.02 does not apply in cases where the perpetrator used force or threat of force, it does apply in cases where the perpetrator uses drugs, intoxicants, or controlled substances to impair the victim, or the victim’s ability to resist is otherwise substantially impaired. The period of limitations for a §2305.111 civil action by a victim of childhood sexual abuse is currently 12 years from when the cause of action accrues.

  • S/L Sign on Letter Re: Rescue Plan State/Local
    February 17, 2021 U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 U.S. Senate Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear Members of Congress: As elected leaders representing communities across our nation, we are writing to urge you to take immediate action on comprehensive coronavirus relief legislation, including desperately needed funding for states, counties, cities, and schools, and an increase in states’ federal medical assistance percentage (FMAP). President Biden’s ambitious $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan will go a long way towards alleviating the significant financial strain COVID-19 has placed on our states, counties, cities, and schools, and the pocketbooks of working families. Working people have been on the frontlines of this pandemic for nearly a year and have continued to do their jobs during this difficult time. Dedicated public servants are still leaving their homes to ensure Americans continue to receive the essential services they rely upon: teachers and education workers are doing their best to provide quality education and keep their students safe, janitors are still keeping parks and public buildings clean, while healthcare providers are continuing to care for the sick. Meanwhile, it has been ten months since Congress passed the CARES Act Coronavirus Relief Fund to support these frontline workers and the essential services they provide. Without significant economic assistance from the federal government, many of these currently-middle class working families are at risk of falling into poverty through no fault of their own. It is a painful irony that while many have rightly called these essential workers heroes, our country has failed to truly respect them with a promise to protect them and pay them throughout the crisis.

  • Issue No. 13 – 2020 (Published August 1, 2020)
    Michigan Register Issue No. 13 – 2020 (Published August 1, 2020) GRAPHIC IMAGES IN THE MICHIGAN REGISTER COVER DRAWING Michigan State Capitol: This image, with flags flying to indicate that both chambers of the legislature are in session, may have originated as an etching based on a drawing or a photograph. The artist is unknown. The drawing predates the placement of the statue of Austin T. Blair on the capitol grounds in 1898. (Michigan State Archives) PAGE GRAPHICS Capitol Dome: The architectural rendering of the Michigan State Capitol’s dome is the work of Elijah E. Myers, the building’s renowned architect. Myers inked the rendering on linen in late 1871 or early 1872. Myers’ fine draftsmanship, the hallmark of his work, is clearly evident. Because of their size, few architectural renderings of the 19th century have survived. Michigan is fortunate that many of Myers’ designs for the Capitol were found in the building’s attic in the 1950’s. As part of the state’s 1987 sesquicentennial celebration, they were conserved and deposited in the Michigan State Archives. (Michigan State Archives) East Elevation of the Michigan State Capitol: When Myers’ drawings were discovered in the 1950’s, this view of the Capitol – the one most familiar to Michigan citizens – was missing. During the building’s recent restoration (1989-1992), this drawing was commissioned to recreate the architect’s original rendering of the east (front) elevation. (Michigan Capitol Committee) Michigan Register Published pursuant to § 24.208 of The Michigan Compiled Laws Issue No. 13— 2020 (This issue, published August 1, 2020, contains documents filed from July 1, 2020 to July 15, 2020) Compiled and Published by the Michigan Office of Administrative Hearings and Rules © 2020 by Michigan Office of Administrative Hearings and Rules, State of Michigan All rights reserved.
