Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine has signed the state's nearly $200 billion budget, but he issued more than 40 vetoes ranging from higher education policy to health care management.
The main focus of both the House’s and the Senate’s budgets was education. The Senate plan was much more conservative, while the House plan was bipartisan. After a week and a half of negotiations, an agreement was reached on the two-year, $191 billion budget. The budget is projected at $86 billion for fiscal year 2024 and $105 billion for fiscal year 2025.
"I think this budget is about putting money into the economy," House Finance Chair Jay Edwards said."It's about allowing our Ohioans to keep money in their pocket while also maintaining a social safety net for people in need in our most vulnerable population. I think we land in a good spot." For Republicans, he vetoed Medicaid coverage of doulas. Senate Minority Leader Nickie Antonio said that the budget has already unfairly cut Medicaid funding.
