JUNE 20, 2019 Senate will remove amendments from BWC budget bill The Ohio Senate is poised to pass a “bare bones” Bureau of Workers’ Compensation (BWC) budget bill. OAJ supports several positive amendments that the House added to the same bill and urges the Senate to retain most of the House amendments. However, OAJ opposes one House amendment requiring the BWC to collect data about whether a claimant has the legal right to work in the US. The bill is likely to wind up in a conference committee where the House and Senate will work out their differences.
