Ohio Senate billWould give aid to 218 poorer districts
A Senate panel plans to back a $50 million equity fund for 218 poorer districts. The measure, replacing a prior plan for 200 districts, would allocate $43.75 million by wealth and income, plus $5 million for classroom technology and $1.5 million for joint vocational districts. House sponsors call the substitute stronger and more equitable.

About 300 people demonstrated at the Ohio Statehouse on Wednesday in defense of elder care programs facing possible cuts. The Coalition For Eldercare welcomed Gov. Voinovich support for home-delivered meals and independent living aid, but advocates fear cuts of about 370 million dollars as part of a July 1 state spending reduction to close a 520 million deficit.

Welfare cuts prompt Ohio city county leaders plea
Cleveland and Cuyahoga County officials told Governor Voinovich that state aid must continue to help cope with welfare cuts. The meeting noted a July budget forecast showing no further welfare losses, but urged the state to play an active role and address root causes of the system’s strain. Cincinnati’s reapportionment debate moves to the Supreme Court as lawyer Kane files a separate plan while Republicans and Democrats clash over voting rights and district design.
