This week on "The State of Ohio": A twist in the campaign for governor -the GOP goes after the Democratic governor for his Wall Street connections. A new report says the state spends hundreds of millions of dollars locking up low level offenders for sentences that are too short for rehabilitation, but long enough to give them time to learn from experienced criminals. There's a huge budget deficit on the horizon, but the Department of Education has requested nearly a billion dollars more money in the next budget. The state school superintendent explains.
And the 2010 Ohio State Fair is open, and it brings a colossal honor for a former chief executive - all this week in "The State of Ohio".

A familiar piece of legislation has been introduced in the Ohio house. The bill that's intended to crack down on "puppy mills" has re-surfaced. In the past, dog breeders have rallied against the measure. Democratic state representative Bob Hagan, is one of the sponsors of the newly introduced bill. In an interview with Ohio Public Radio's Jo Ingles, Hagan explains how this bill is different than in the past. |
