Governor John Kasich has signed the new two-year state budget into law that he says closes a historic budget gap without raising taxes. The first-term Republican put his pen to the spending blueprint last night.  The budget, passed by the Ohio House and Senate this week largely along party lines, follows most of what Kasich wanted, including merit pay for teachers, expanded charter schools, and the elimination of the estate tax. 

 

In addition to the state budget, Kasich signed nearly a dozen other bills into law Thursday. Among them, legislation that will allow people to take guns into bars and businesses that serve alcohol, and another that opens up state parks for oil and gas drilling. 

 

Northeast Ohio’s statehouse delegation fell mostly along party lines in a series of big votes this week including on the budget, the most restrictive abortion bill in the country and a bill limiting early voting. WKSU’s ML Schultze has more.  

 

A northeast Ohio company showcased by President Barack Obama as the face of renewable energy has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. Bedford Heights-based Cardinal Fastener & Specialty Company makes bolts for wind turbines and says it’s been losing business to European parts makers and recently negotiations with its primary lender broke down. The company that employs about 65 has halted operations. Ohio ranked 6th in the nation for total wind industry jobs last year, with up to 4,000 employees.  Mr. Obama toured the company in 2009, saying it was a business that would grow with the development of renewable energy.

 

Cleveland Congressman Dennis Kucinich says that Syria’s official government news agency mistranslated his comments that appeared to praise Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. Kucinich is visiting Syria and Lebanon this week, and the Syrian Arab News Agency quoted him Tuesday as saying that Assad is beloved by his people and committed to reforms. More than a thousand Syrians have been killed since protests erupted in March. Yaser Tabbara is the executive director of the Syrian American Council, and he says he is not buying Kucinich’s explanation. Tabbara says he and others in his community were shocked by Kucinich’s comments given what he calls the congressman’s outstanding record on human rights issues. Kucinich has said he believes that a diplomatic solution is possible in Syria.
