Ohio Senate bills cuts in GOP budget spark bitter six hour debate
In a six hour session the Ohio Senate approved a $19.6 billion general fund budget backed by Republicans, cutting $621 million from House levels and aiming for a 30 percent personal income tax cut over three years. Democrats denounced the measure as punishing the vulnerable. Senate Minority Leader Meshel blasted the plan as punitive and shallow, while Republican leaders defended the funding increase when federal dollars are counted, totaling about $30.2 billion. A House rejection of Senate changes was anticipated, opening a joint conference committee to craft a compromise.
