Fireworks at the Ohio Statehouse as Stevens Gavels Down Conservatives

Jason Stevens, who was elected Speaker by the Democrats, held the first session since his election shocker earlier this month. Today was to be votes for floor leadership and for House rules. Speaker Jason Stevens would not recognize his fellow Republicans, but rammed through his own leadership with help from the Democrats and would not recognize Rep. Josh Williams of Lucas County who stood to speak to amend. It's a bad look for the Speaker to not recognize the newly-elected African American Republican Representative from Lucas County. Rep. Derek Merrin stood to remind the Speaker that he is to recognize the members for motions and efforts to amend in accordance with House rules. Shoutings of disapproval erupted in the chamber when Stevens would not so much as look at his fellow members for recognition. Here to discuss the shocking development at the Ohio Statehouse are Pastor John Coats of Columbus and Pastor Al Davis.
