Hottinger works for more efficient government

Ohio Representative Jay Hottinger is co-sponsoring a bill that may lead to more efficient state government. It would create a commission comprised of business leaders to study how the State of Ohio can become more business-like. They might recommend combination, improvements or elimination of agencies and functions.

How many times have we wished government were run like a successful business? Well, Jay is among those opening the door for that and I hope folks at the Statehouse will rally to this cause.

The bill, HB66, would ensure that the 12 members of the commission could not personally profit from their decisions. Their work would not drag on forever, but end with a final report due 1/31/11.

Jay explains how this commission would work in a news release 3/13/09 entitled “Making State Government More Efficient” I have reproduced it at the Newark Tea Party web site at this link.
