House Measure Raises ADC Payments Potential in Ohio
A budget language bill headed for a House vote could allow the State Controlling Board to raise Aid to Dependent Children payments by at least 25 cents per recipient if funds exist or caseload drops. Budget Director William W. Wilkins warns this expands board power, while opponents cite fiscal risk and precedent.
