Working For You

State Rep. Al Cutrona (R-Canfield) this week introduced legislation that would require school district boards of education in Ohio to adopt a policy that authorizes students to be excused from school to attend a religious release time program.

“More and more parents in Ohio would like their children to participate in religious release time programs,” said Cutrona. “By being proactive in considering how release time programs work before groups of parents ask for an option, school districts will be in the best position to tailor a program that works within the academic framework of the district.”

This legislation would require school districts across the state to prepare for the eventuality that parents would like a release time option by creating a policy to guide this activity in the future.

COLUMBUS, OH — State Rep. Al Cutrona (R-Canfield) cosponsored the Human Trafficking Prevention Act that will increase criminal penalties for human trafficking, kidnapping, and abduction.

“The fact that Ohio has the fourth-highest number of reported cases of human trafficking in the nation, is frightening and unacceptable,” said Cutrona.  “When you factor in that over 97% of those cases involve sex trafficking, our penalties aren’t strong enough.  We must do everything we can to ensure justice for all victims of trafficking.”

COLUMBUS, OH — State Rep. Al Cutrona (R-Canfield) made the following statement in response to the Ohio House overriding Governor DeWine’s veto of House Bill 68, the Save Adolescents from Experimentation Act (SAFE) and the Save Women’s Sports Act:

“As a co-sponsor of HB 68, I was shocked and appalled by Governor DeWine’s veto on the bill. Today, I stand proudly on the House floor to override this veto. We have a duty as the legislature to protect our children – Children with gender dysphoria need mental health counseling and treatment, not surgical mutilation - and the SAFE Act does exactly that by banning puberty blockers and surgical sex changes for children and keeping boys out of women’s sports. I commend my colleagues in the House for their expeditious actions on this bill and urge my colleagues in the Senate to do the same and quickly overturn this veto.”

The veto override now heads to the Ohio Senate for consideration.
