Ohio Senate OK's Interim Budget and Tax Plan Eyed
The Ohio Senate approved a 297 million interim budget for July and sent it to the House which must act by June 30. A broad tax package including a graduated personal income tax and a corporate tax is under debate with GOP conservatives opposing county level administration and some Democrats wary of floor approval. The House also advanced a rail crew bill to repeal excess crew requirements and passed a drunk driving standard change lowering the permitted blood alcohol level to .10, aimed at reducing traffic deaths.
