Ohio Legislative Update: 2010 Summer Recess Status Report - Ohio’s 128th General Assembly

Marathon Wrap-Up Session Concluded June 4, 2010

With the conclusion of a marathon session that stretched over two days, the Ohio General Assembly wrapped up their work and recessed for the summer on June 4, 2010. While the main impetus for the lengthy final session was the need to pass casino implementation legislation prior to the constitutionally set deadline of June 3, a number of other significant bills were passed and sent to the Governor. Working against the backdrop of an intense and contentious political landscape, June’s marathon session also provided the last sure opportunity to pass significant measures that had been pending in the House and Senate chambers.
