Description

Ohio's Lieutenant Governor, Jon Husted, will be heading off to Washington soon after being picked by Gov. Mike DeWine to fill the seat vacated by former U.S. Sen. JD Vance. Vance will serve as the nation's vice president. Ohio Statehouse Scoop host Jo Ingles has details and a preview of the state's upcoming budget process. She's joined by Ohio Public Media Statehouse News Bureau Chief Karen Kasler and Reporter Sarah Donaldson to about all things politics, including the announcement of a major defense contractor, Anduril, that has chosen to put a new facility in the Buckeye State. And speaking of Buckeyes, the Ohio State University football team plays in the national championship game in Atlanta Monday night against Notre Dame. Go Bucks!
