Maddy summaryHB 850 proposes to temporarily lower the state tax on gasoline and other motor fuels to help address rising fuel prices. Under this bill, the tax on each gallon of gasoline would be reduced to 19.25 cents, while taxes on compressed natural gas and other fuels would drop to 23.5 cents. The revenue collected during this period would still be distributed according to existing rules, but the specific dollar amounts allocated for certain purposes would be cut in half. The legislation includes an emergency declaration to make these changes take effect immediately.
Maddy summaryHB 860 designates the Zebra Swallowtail as the official state butterfly of Ohio.

This change directly affects state symbols and could influence how the butterfly is represented on educational materials or official documents. The legislation does not alter any laws or regulations but simply updates the state's list of recognized wildlife.
