    Read excerpt

    State lawmakers have overwhelmingly passed a 90-day suspension of the state's 38.5-cent tax on gasoline and 47-cent tax on diesel. It happened in an unexpected session during an election year break, after calls for a gas tax holiday from both major party candidates for governor. And because it passed as emergency legislation, it will take effect as soon as it's signed by Gov. Mike DeWine, which could be as early as tomorrow. "We need to act now because it's in our power to do so," said Rep. Andr

    The 90-day suspension of Ohio’s gas tax backed by Republicans got its first hearing today before a Senate panel. The temporary halt on the 38.5 cent state tax on gas and 47-cent state tax on diesel will come up in an unexpected session tomorrow, called by GOP leaders just to vote on the plan.
