Columbus, OH – On Wednesday, The Buckeye Institute testified (see full text below or download a PDF) before the Ohio Senate Higher Education and Workforce Committee on the policies in Senate Bill 131, which would adopt universal occupational license recognition for people moving to Ohio.
In his testimony, Greg R. Lawson, a research fellow at The Buckeye Institute, noted that Senate Bill 131 builds on the Buckeye-inspired Senate Bill 7 and that military families aren’t the only professionals who suffer when trying to make Ohio their home. “Ohio’s current occupational licensing regime prevents many trained, licensed professionals from pursuing their careers here,” Lawson noted, going on to point out that Buckeye research revealed that “high fees and training requirements reduce an occupation’s job growth by 20 percent.”
