Action Alert from LWVO
The decision to maintain the governor’s veto or override it now goes to the Ohio Senate.
(The following was copied from LWVO's Action Alert.)
This week [week of 07/21/25] , you helped us stop the Ohio House from overriding two of the vetoes Governor DeWine issued before signing Ohio’s 2026-27 main operating budget. Both provisions would have taken funding from schools and other vital public services, hurting communities across Ohio.
Unfortunately, House members were successful in passing—by just one vote—an override to the governor’s veto of a provision that takes away local authority to decide what kind of property tax levies work best in their communities.
The decision to maintain the governor’s veto or override it, now goes to the Ohio Senate. It's up to us: we must stop this override.
