Many people simply don't know how our form of Government works, and one of the most rewarding aspects of volunteering for Ohioans For Concealed Carry is discovering how things tick. When votes are recorded and displayed on the big wall in the House, nothing is written in stone immediately. Ohioans For Concealed Carry has learned that HB12 did actually pass the Ohio Senate by 22-10. But what about the House vote on Senate Amendments?
It failed by 94-5, not 83-5. Apparently during the vote numerous House members were busy off the floor working on budget related matters. When they returned, the remainder of them voted against accepting the Senate Amendments, resulting in a resounding 94-5 result. We have acquired official copies of The Senate vote record on amended HB12 and The House vote record on the Senate Amendments. Every single member of the Ohio House voted to reject the Senate Amendments, excluding these five Representatives:
