Budget & Taxes

To amend section 1546.04 of the Revised Code to require the ODNR Chief of the Division of Parks and Watercraft to establish a discount program for veterans and service members for park services and rentals.

HCR 32 is a non-binding resolution urging the U.S. Congress to adopt zero-based budgeting for federal agencies. It proposes requiring agencies to rebuild their annual budgets from scratch each year - justifying every dollar of funding rather than starting with the previous year’s budget - instead of adding to existing appropriations. This would force agencies to evaluate all programs, rank priorities, and eliminate unnecessary spending to improve fiscal responsibility. The resolution does not change current law but calls on Congress to take action on this budgeting approach. It was introduced in the 2026 legislative session and referred to committee.
