Order Online : "The State of Ohio"
This week on "The State of Ohio": State lawmakers consider what they can do in the wake of the horrible and yet miraculous escape story out of Cleveland involving three women held prisoner in a house for a decade. New data shows more than half of all violent crimes are committed by a very small numbers of offenders. Lawmakers are now working to target that tiny group. And more thoughts on legislation that would dramatically change rules on unions in Ohio.
 

Senator pushes for aid for businesses which hire National Guard members.
By Jo Ingles - January 4, 2005
Businesses that hire Ohio National Guard or reserve members of the military will get a little incentive from the state if one Ohio lawmaker gets his way. The plan by Democratic state senator Mark Mallory would give businesses that hire National Guard or reserve members a twenty five hundred dollar tax incentive. Mallory says it’s something that’s already being done for convicted felons. Senator Mallory says the tax breaks for businesses would be funded with money from the state’s crime victims fund.
