House Bill 377 Passes Ohio House

May 19, 2022
Don Jones News

COLUMBUS –State Representative Don Jones (R-Freeport) supported House Bill 337 with a vote on the Ohio House floor, which appropriates additional funding to the Office of Budget and Management to disburse to local governments in accordance with the American Rescue Plan Act.

Townships and municipalities were excluded from the most recent congressional estimates for recovery funding but were included in previous versions. This issue is not unique to Ohio; communities in Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, and South Dakota are all facing this problem as well.

The American Rescue Plan is policy crafted by the federal government to help local communities throughout the United States recover from the pandemic.

“This legislation will ensure that all communities within Ohio have access to federal dollars necessary for recovery from the pandemic and economic struggles that came as a consequence,” said Jones.
