Ohio House OKs cigaret tax hike as Senate weighs unemployment bill
Ohio lawmakers move to raise the cigaret tax by two cents while the Senate prepares a major unemployment benefits bill. The unemployment measure would lift top weekly benefits to 47 dollars, add dependents, extend max duration to 39 weeks, and allow certain earnings without reducing state payments. The payroll tax base would rise from 2000 to 3600 dollars. A separate move creates an Ohio Civil Rights Commission to enforce fair employment practices.
