Sponsors of mental health bill to testify (Ohio) Advertiser Tribune story - "The push for a mental health parity law in the state of Ohio begins in earnest today as the primary sponsor of Senate Bill 116, Sen. Bob Spada (R-Pepper Pike), and the sponsor of House Bill 180, its companion legislation, Rep. Jon Peterson (R-Delaware), are scheduled to begin testimony today in front of the Senate Insurance Committee. These two bills are nearly exact copies of the legislation put forth by former representative Lynn Olman in 2004, as House Bill 225. HB 225 passed through the House of Representatives in February 2004, but was blocked from reaching the Senate floor for a vote in December 2004. The new legislation, SB 116, was initiated April 1 by Senator Spada, while its companion, HB 180, was initiated by Peterson on April 5 in the midst of a massive support rally held by mental health advocates in Columbus."
