Order Online : "The State of Ohio"
This week on "The State of Ohio": The Senate version of the budget is on its way, with just a few weeks remaining to hammer out differences with the House. Lawmakers try to clarify the state auditor's role with JobsOhio. And we revisit and update two controversial issues from the last year - the abortion debate in Ohio and the state's new exotic animals law and the facility it created.
 

Kasich appoints another cabinet member, demands agency heads work to streamline rules.
By Jo Ingles - January 8, 2011
Gov.-elect John Kasich says he wants his appointments for directors of Commerce, Agriculture and Development to cut regulations that keep businesses from coming to Ohio. Kasich says he wants his cabinet to work with Lt. Gov.-elect Mary Taylor to figure out ways to make Ohio's government more attractive to business. Kasich is not talking about tinkering with the existing system.



Kasich says he wants his appointees to look at all aspects of their agencies to figure out how best to cut unnecessary regulation. He made his comments Saturday when he appointed former Republican Rep. David Goodman (R-New Albany) as commerce director and made interim Department of Youth Services Director Christine Money's position permanent.
