Order Online : "The State of Ohio"
This week on "The State of Ohio": The budget is on its way to a committee that will hammer out the differences before the end of the month deadline. But there are serious issues on both sides that could slow down the talks. A billion dollars is headed back to Ohio employers who paid into the state’s Bureau of Workers' Comp program. But a critic says the BWC has an outstanding bill that remains unpaid. And more on how Ohio's poorest people are surviving the rising costs of a basic existence.
 

Budget now heads to conference committee after long and emotional debate in Senate.
By Bill Cohen - June 8, 2011
Negotiators for the Ohio Senate and House are now poised to sit down and hammer out a compromise between their two different versions of a new $55 billion state budget. Those differences pale by comparison to the differences between majority Republicans and minority Democrats. Statehouse correspondent Bill Cohen reports that was obvious last night, when senators okayed their version after a six hour, often bitter, debate.
