HEADLINES: State officials are treading cautiously toward impeachment against Marc Dann, after the scandal-scarred attorney general refused to resign. This week brought the deadline for state lawmakers to act on a proposed bill that would require most Ohio companies to provide workers with at least seven paid sick days each year. Keno may soon be a go. The governor won in his bid to bring the game to Ohio, as a panel of state lawmakers approved his request to spend $18 million on equipment to buy 2,000 video Keno games for bars and other places. The Ohio Supreme Court will decide whether cities have the right to require police officers and other employees to live within city limits. The director of the Ohio Department of Transportation says the state needs a transportation policy that focuses on more than just the automobile. Eight years after it was set up to administer Ohio's share of the settlement with the big cigarette makers, the state's anti-tobacco agency has been blown away into history.
ROUNDTABLE SEGMENT: Many are calling for Attorney General Marc Dann to resign over a sex scandal in his office, but Dann says no one has questioned the work that's been done in his office, and that he's made mistakes, but hasn't done anything that would cause him to quit. Here to talk about it are two longtime political experts from both sides. Dale Butland is a Democratic strategist and is currently working with the Ohio Healthy Families Act. Also here is Brett Sciotto, a Republican consultant and president of American Strategies.
