Ohio Senate balks at Bitburg cemetery cut from Reagan trip
The Ohio Senate approved a resolution urging a reassessment of President Reagan’s Germany itinerary but rejected a Democratic push to demand cancellation of the Bitburg cemetery visit. The 30-3 vote leaves the plan non specific while sending the measure to the House. Separately, a 29-4 vote sent to the House a bill requiring consecutive prison terms for repeat rapists and other serious offenders, tightening current concurrent-sentence practice.
