Ohio Vetoes Bills on Plant Layoffs and Liquor Age Rules
Ohio Governor vetoes a bill restricting unemployment benefits to workers laid off due to plant closures and blocks a liquor server age expansion. He warns the move could bankrupt the state fund and calls the measure discriminatory. The State Liquor Control chief opposes a separate bill easing liquor eligibility for 19 and 20 year olds in food-heavy establishments citing teen drinking concerns. A belt restraint bill for children under four awaits House action, with 53 child fatalities cited as justification. Ohio also launches a new computerized license plate system with A and B last names in January, featuring blue white plates, a three letter three number code, reflectorization, and a five year lifespan, plus mailing and dealer options and a reduced wait with a new network. Hunter safety education courses are promoted for children receiving firearms, with a toll free contact.
