Rep. Jay Edwards (R-Nelsonville) in a lengthy Facebook post on Wednesday attacked Ohio Senate President Larry Obhof (R-Medina), who adjourned the chamber Tuesday night without holding a vote to override Gov. Mike DeWineâs Dec. 3 veto of a bill that would have severely limited the executiveâs powers to implement certain public health orders.
âI think itâs fair to show this man single handily (sic) kept this bill from being overrode, made excuses, blamed others, and lied,â Edwards said. âThe truth is, he did not want to upset the Governor in hopes the Governor helps him get hired or appointed to his next gig ⦠President Obhof, quit telling LIES about us and maybe weâll quit telling the TRUTH about you.â
