Notes |
This paper was stamped by the house or senate clerk's office; the label likely fell off of a piece of legislation. The bill was reported out of committee and the members of either the Ohio house or senate agreed to it. The bill was ordered to be engrossed in the reported bill. It would then be read for a third consideration in order of regular business. There are three steps in the engrossing process: 1. as introduced 2. as reported (as in this case) 3. as passed |
Provenance |
Workers found this label during the renovation of the Statehouse in the 1990s. The Capitol Square Review and Advisory Board took over the care of the Statehouse and its collections in 1988. |
