Ohio Governor Mike Dewine has signed a huge operating budget of the state, which includes the financing of the fresh Cleveland Browns stadium and provides tax reduction for the opulent.
This is a developing story and will be updated. The governor will organize a press conference at 10 am on Tuesday at his decisions.
At 23:15 on Monday, Dewine announced that he had approved about $ 60 billion in republican expenses. From 1:30 he was only in the middle of scanning his 67 people, said spokesman Dan Tierney.
Until now, we know several items approved in the budget.
The brown will receive $ 600 million for the fresh Brook Park stadium.
The budget calls the state to accept legal property in the amount of $ 1.7 billion in the scope of non -collapsed funds, establishing a clock how long people have to make claims and re -unite with missing money.
This is a grave change for Ohio, which currently contains missed funds forever. The budget will give people a decade to apply for their money before it becomes the property of the state. Legislators want to immediately earn $ 1.7 billion from the pool of non -fired funds worth $ 4.8 billion in Ohio – and then continue to accept money on the basis of carrying, after a decade of holding them.
The budget also changes state law to hinder professionals to sports teams to leave publicly subsidized facilities, which is a significant obstacle from the Browns road to Brook Park.
The fresh language claims that the so -called model law, aimed at preventing the main sports teams from raising the rates, would only appear when the team decides to leave the state.
Changes in the law will probably end the court battle, which is just starting and pulling the lever from the city of Cleveland, which is fighting to keep Brown on the lake or negotiating a better exit agreement if the team leaves.
Income tax
He also approved 2.75% of GOP income tax, which means that the highest earn in a country who earn over $ 100,000 a year, they will no longer have to pay 3.5% of income tax, which makes them equal to a lower tax range.
State data reveal that this may cause a loss of over $ 1.1 billion in the general revenue fund. This was invented by limiting social services and some tax exemptions.
Medicaid
Tierney confirmed that some aspects of Medicaid cuts were signed, which were shortened about 800,000 Ohioans from healthcare. He said other regulations were vetoed.
