	Testimony of Tammy Seltzer before the Ohio State Senate Finance Committee
		Without the state’s unequivocal commitment to supporting families, such as the passage of S.B.192, the knowledge that counties may, at their discretion, be able to prevent custody relinquishment means nothing to the families unlucky enough to live in counties that chose not to address this tragedy.
		Ohio should examine the feasibility of using the HCBS waiver and the TEFRA option to meet the needs of children with mental and emotional disorders who are now ending up in the child welfare system and institutional care for lack of appropriate services.
		Ohio is in a position to learn from the experiences of other states as they have attempted to fashion appropriate remedies.

	Ohio Attorney General - History of the Office
		The earliest reference to an "Attorney General" in Ohio can be found in the government of the Northwest Territory, where the Congressional Act of June 16, 1795 provided for the interests of the Government of the Territory to be represented by an "Attorney General" before the General Court of the Territory.
		First, Ohio's state government was very decentralized; law enforcement was handled on the county level, and the Ohio Supreme Court appointed each county's prosecuting attorney.
		In 1851, the second Ohio Constitution was adopted, the first having served the citizens of the state since it was written in 1802.

	CNN.com - Ohio close to passing gay marriage ban - Jan. 21, 2004
		Ohio State Rep. William Seitz testifies before the Ohio State Senate Finance Committee in support of the Defense of Marriage Act on Tuesday.
		After Finan left the Senate in 2003 because of term limits, Republican Rep. Bill Seitz sponsored the current bill and told the committee that a ruling in Massachusetts that declared the state's gay marriage ban unconstitutional could affect Ohio.
		His bill states that same-sex marriages would be "against the strong public policy of the state," and would prohibit unmarried partners of state employees from receiving benefits received by married partners.

	State Sen. Dann introduces bill to reform university trustee boards (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		According to Senator Dann, the legislation he is introducing today will dramatically alter the criteria for becoming a member of the board of trustees of the state’s public universities, technical and community colleges, Board of Regents, and the Tuition Trust Authority.
		Senator Dann said that one of the most significant features of the bill is the requirement that each board include a member who is the parent of a student at the university in question at the time of their appointment.
		The Senator concluded by saying that the provision prohibiting the appointment of former legislators, executive agency employees or lobbyists to the boards for a period of three years after they have left government service or stopped lobbying will make it less likely that these prestigious appointments will be offered as rewards for services rendered.

	The Ohio & Erie Canal--Reading 1
		The economy in the interior of the state was based on a barter system in which farmers grew and raised what they needed for their families, and exchanged any surplus goods for other needed supplies and staples.
		Although Ohio’s state senate declined to provide financial aid to the project, it did agree to assist in other ways, such as promoting trade on the canal.
		Although the idea of creating a canal system in Ohio was on the minds of many politicians during the late 1810s and early 1820s, it took several years of surveying and planning before this project actually started.
