Ohio Senate announces committee schedule for budget hearings Sen. Matt Huffman COLUMBUS – Senate President Matt Huffman (R-Lima) and Senate Finance Chairman Matt Dolan (R-Chagrin Falls) have released the Ohio Senate s tentative hearing schedule for the state budget, House Bill 110.
Under Ohio law, the Legislature must pass a balanced budget, and have it signed by the Governor, prior to July 1 of this year. The state s budget is one of the most complex and important pieces of legislation we will consider throughout this General Assembly, Huffman said. I trust the Senate will work diligently, efficiently and transparently to provide our great state with an operating budget that is both balanced and fiscally responsible, keeping the hard-working taxpayers of this state in mind with each decision made.
