The bill would bring the departments of Education, Higher Education and the Governor’s Office of Workforce Transformation into one agency essentially controlled by the governor.

Rep. Lou Blessing III (R-Cincinnati) chairs the committee looking at the bill, and said he’s planning no more hearings on it in its current form.

“After we have had four or five hearings, and heard quite a bit of opponent testimony, we figured it was probably best to pump the brakes on this and go back to the drawing board,” Blessing said.

Rep. Bill Reinecke (R-Tiffin) is the sponsor, and has said a substitute measure is in the works. The plan is opposed by the state school board, public school organizations, teachers’ unions and homeschool groups.
