Ohio House Delays Vote On Gay Marriage Bill
The Ohio House postponed action on a same sex marriage ban at the request of Gov. Taft, rescheduling for February 3. The measure would declare same sex marriages against state policy and ban state employee domestic partner benefits, while not applying to private firms. Taft supports the bill partially to allow private companies to keep domestic partner benefits.

Miller Defends City Contract Authority In Lease Dispute
Miller denies wrongdoing and says Johnson lied about his knowledge of a lease. He claims he did not know the city owned similar equipment and notes Johnson told him in 2002 the gear was a friend’s. Johnson says Miller knew nothing, while an internal probe led to a nine day suspension for Johnson amid an April 2003 overtime use. Hoffer, ex sewer director, resigned in December amid the investigation.

ACLU urges Ohio special election for Traficant seat
The ACLU argued in the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals that Gov. Taft was required to call a special election to fill James Traficant Jr.’s vacancy in 2002. Taft contends discretion and cost could justify delaying until the regular election, while Traficant serves a federal sentence in Pennsylvania. Tim Ryan later won the seat.

Judge bars bars from using Taverns for Tots to sidestep smoking ban
U S District Judge James Carr issued a temporary restraining order against bars that created Taverns for Tots Inc to allow smoking during private functions. About 60 bars had joined, charging a $1 membership and pledging 1 percent of gross receipts to underprivileged children. The city cites the charity as a sham and will keep enforcing the smoking ban on bars and restaurants. A hearing is set for next week to determine the charity’s legitimacy and impact on the ban.
