The Ohio House Finance Committee has accepted 325 amendments to the state budget, which must clear both the House and the Senate by June 30. Among the changes are eliminating the bottom two tax brackets, a limit on hospital Medicaid spending to $7 billion per year and axing the mandate that would have required colleges to pay for students' textbooks.
Today we'll discuss the state budget and the latest in local and national news with a panel of reporters.
Guests:
- Doug Caruso, Assistant Metro Editor,
- Julie Carr Smyth, Statehouse Correspondent,
