COLUMBUS—State Senator Nathan Manning (R-North Ridgeville) today applauded the signing of Substitute House Bill 110, Ohio's FY 2022-2023 biennial budget.

"I appreciate all of the diligent work that went into producing a balanced, fiscally responsible budget for the people of Ohio," said Manning.

Major provisions in the Senate's plan include $1.6 billion in personal income tax cuts for working Ohioans, a modernized and fair school funding plan, investments in local governments, and boosting health and human services. The bill also makes a $250 million investment in broadband expansion for unserved and underserved areas of the state.

- Allocating $75,000 per fiscal year for Lorain County's Neighborhood Alliance Senior Nutrition Program
- Securing $175,000 each fiscal year for the Lorain and Huron County fire departments
- Spending $300,000 each fiscal year for Shoes & Clothes for Kids, which will help the Cuyahoga County program expand to Lorain County - Increasing funding for Ohio's rape crisis centers by $2.7 million in FY 2022, including the Nord Center in Lorain
