Legislature approves MRDD legislation containing
facility closure language
Jan. 21, 2004 - The
Ohio General Assembly yesterday voted in favor of Senate Bill 178, created
to improve MRDD client protections and the facility closure process. SB
178 is nearly identical to SB 4—recently vetoed by Gov. Taft—with
a few exceptions.
It moves to Gov. Taft's desk next. Once signed into
law, the bill is effective immediately. Thanks go out to union members
who repeatedly contacted Ohio legislators over the last several months.
More details will be available soon. |
