Columbus, OH A bill that is sure to generate some controversy in the FOIA community, JobsOhio or House Bill 1, Ohio 2011 is before committee in the House of Representatives. Governor John Kasich proposed the legislation earlier this month as an initiative to bring Jobs to Ohio. JobsOhio would be created as a private agency exempted for the most part from public records and open meetings laws. More information about Ohio's laws on private agencies receiving public funding can be found at our Private Agencies, Public Dollars page. Governor Kasich believes that working outside the public framework is necessary for economic development to happen.
