  • Legislative Report
    Legislative Report 11/4/2019 BALLOT ISSUES While the federal government does provide protections against foreign entities gaining control of critical infrastructure in Ohio and across the U.S., the Buckeye State should adopt a constitutional amendment to better protect its power plants, electric transmission lines, oil and gas pipelines and water treatment plants, Reps. Don Manning (R-New Middletown) and Jamie Callender (R-Concord) said Wednesday. Speaking to the House Energy and Natural Resources Committee during the panel's first hearing on HJR2, Manning said they have been "troubled by the growing trend of foreign entities acquiring or financing some of our country's most critical infrastructure," so they'd like to place the "Ohio Critical Infrastructure Protection Amendment" (OCIPA) on the November 2020 ballot. FirstEnergy Solutions (FES) says the state must quash the referendum campaign against HB6 (Callender-Wilkin) energy subsidies once and for all or risk losing its two nuclear power plants and their half billion dollars in annual gross domestic product (GDP). The company lodged a second request this week for expedited briefings in State ex rel. FES v. Ohioans Against Corporate Bailouts after its first attempt failed in early September. The Ohio Supreme Court answered Thursday by ordering the campaign and Secretary of State Frank LaRose to respond to FirstEnergy's "new exigencies" no later than Tuesday, Nov. 5. BUSINESS/CORPORATE Cleveland will be the home of the new Americas headquarters for the London Stock Exchange's ELITE initiative and the site of its "Global ELITE Day 2020" conference next year, according to a Monday announcement.

    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.

Unions are the backbone of labor in this country and we proudly stand behind the UAW and their efforts to ensure the fair treatment of employees across the country. As negotiations continue, we are hopeful for a fair compromise from General Motors and a successful strike. We stand with you. In solidarity, Rep.
