Ohio House to Vote on Anti-Union Bill 
--------------------------------------



The Ohio House of Representatives is holding a vote today on a measure
that would strip collective bargaining rights for state employees and
bar them from striking. The Ohio Senate passed a harsher version of the
bill earlier this month. State lawmakers have removed a provision that
would impose jail time as a penalty for taking part in strikes.
