COLUMBUS, Ohio (Statehouse News Bureau) — It’s been nearly three months since former Ohio House Speaker Larry Householder and four others connected to him were arrested on federal charges of wrongdoing associated with an energy bill signed into law last year. Gov. DeWine has said he wants that law, HB 6 repealed. But that hasn’t happened yet.
“We’ve certainly talked about this, about the importance of it passing and that it needs to pass. I get the impression that the lame duck session will be an interesting session and I hope very productive,” DeWine says.
DeWine says he also expects the Ohio Legislature to take up bills involving police reform and a bill involving repeat violent offenders might also be taken up during the lame duck session.
