Representative Kathleen Chandler (D-Kent) introduced tax check-off legislation in the Ohio House of Representatives today. House Bill 75 will establish a tax check-off on Ohioans' personal income tax filings that will allow citizens, if owed a return, to donate a part of or the entire return to the Ohio Historical Society. OHS will use funds generated from the tax check-off to create a matching grants program for local history and preservation projects across the state.
On March 4, Sen. Mark Wagoner (R-Ottawa Hills) introduces a similar bill in the senate (Senate Bill 60).
We need your help to get these bills passed! Contact your legislators immediately and tell them that this bill is critical to local history in Ohio.
