Solons Urge Recess Plan Be Delayed
Columbus Republicans in the General Assembly urged delaying the proposed recess for joint committees to shape the biennial budget and related bills until March 16 at the earliest. Administration measures to end earmarking of state taxes moved forward with liquor revenues and use tax proceeds in the general revenue fund. A joint committee to draft the relief program was set to be appointed, with immediate action prioritized despite the recess decision. Senate hearings continued on replacing the tax commission with an administrator and a review board, as other bills on parole, civil service, and governance progressed. The liquor revenue emergency clause narrowly passed after Democrats switched votes. Municipalities share on inheritance taxes would go into general revenue funds, pending governor action.
