Daylight saving: 19 states passed permanent daylight-saving laws that cannot start until Congress acts. Sunshine Protection Act stalled. Clocks still fall back November 1. Hosts want standard time, not daylight time.
E-Check: Northeast Ohio air now meets federal standards, so the 1996 testing program in seven counties may go, but U.S. EPA still has to sign off. Drivers test for now.
Gas-tax holiday: DeWine signed a 90-day pause (38.5 cents a gallon on gas, 47 on diesel). Debate over whether wholesalers pocket it and whether the cut is real money at the pump.
Governor polls: a Suffolk poll has Amy Acton up about 9 on Vivek Ramaswamy, and Sherrod Brown up about 3 on Jon Husted, inside the margin. Hosts note a tighter average and a small likely-voter sample.
Side by side: Vivek takes a jet-setting billionaire / failed Alzheimer’s-drug question, calls the guy a plant, and keeps going through recorded events and a debate challenge. Amy walks off a questioner about twenty feet away. Line in the clip: no pictures, no interviews. The race in one short. Vivek answered. Amy runs, like she did in 2020.
Voter ID: photo ID is already law. A GOP push would copy it into the Ohio Constitution. Hosts: you still have to do it. This is codifying what’s already there.
November money asks: about 30 Northeast Ohio school districts seeking levies, plus Cuyahoga Issue 11 (health and human services renewal and increase).
Good Things: a Lorain County couple’s 1983 wedding proofs never came back. The album turned up at a garage sale and found its way home about 40 years later.
