Republicans in Ohio House create new committee for nuclear bailout repeal debate

Ohio House Creates New Committee For Nuclear Bailout Repeal Debate, Cincinnati Public Radio, By ANDY CHOW, 31 Aug 20,   Republican leaders in the Ohio House have announced the creation of a new committee to hold hearings on the potential repeal of HB6, a nuclear power plant bailout bill at the center of an alleged $60 million corruption scheme…….

Rep. Laura Lanese (R-Grove City) believes that the end result will still be a full repeal of the law.  ……

House Democrats criticize the new committee as just another hurdle towards a full repeal.

Rep. Michael Skindell (D-Lakewood) says the legislature should act quickly in order to stop further implementation of the law, such as increased electric bills next year.

“I think the citizens of Ohio have had enough conversations. The vast majority of citizens support the outright appeal of House Bill 6,” says Skindell.
The Ohio Senate is also moving forward with a bill that proposes a full repeal of HB6, with its first committee hearing this week.  https://www.wvxu.org/post/ohio-house-creates-new-committee-nuclear-bailout-repeal-debate#stream/0
