DeWine OKs language for Ohio amendments on ethics, ‘green’ energy

The language for proposed amendments to the Ohio Constitution dealing with renewable energy and legislative ethics was approved by state Attorney General Mike DeWine on Monday. DeWine certified that the Ohio Clean Energy Initiative and the Ohio Ethics First Amendment each had at least 1,000 valid signatures of registered voters, the minimum number required. He said the wording on each was a “fair and truthful summary” of the full proposals.
