When a bill is introduced, it is referred to the committee that deals with its particular subject matter. It is discussed publicly by House members. Interested parties will testify about the pros and cons of the proposal so that House members understand better its effects and ramifications. Often times, it will be modified to accommodate the concerns brought forward in the hearings. If it is voted out of committee, it then can be considered by the entire House chamber. Should it get approved by the House, it is then referred to the Ohio Senate, where it undergoes a similar process. Only once a bill gains the approval of both legislative chambers can it get considered by the Governor for his approval. There will be 24 committees in the House in the 135th General Assembly. The committees are as follows: Agriculture & Conservation Armed Services & Veterans Affairs Behavioral Health & Recovery Supports Civil justice Criminal Justice Economic & Workforce Development Elections & Apportionment Energy & Natural Resources Families, Aging, & Human Services Finance Financial Institutions Government Oversight Health Higher Education & Career Readiness Infrastructure & Rural Development Insurance Labor, Commerce, & Pensions Primary & Secondary Education Public Safety, Corrections, & State Security Public Utilities State & Local Government Technology & Innovation Transportation Ways & Means House members will get assigned to committees at the beginning of the General Assembly in early January. Members are designating their preferences to the new House leadership. I have identified three House committees that I feel will enable me to contribute the most for our district: Finance, Technology & Innovation, and Primary & Secondary Education. Alternatively, there are three additional committees with which I feel I can be helpful: Economic & Workforce Development, Higher Education & Career Readiness, and Ways & Means. The Speaker determines, based on his assessment of a member’s expertise, experience, and priorities and the needs of the entire chamber, who will serve on each committee. (Dave Dobos represents the new Ohio House of Representatives 10th District, which consists of most of the west and southwest sides of Columbus, parts of the south side of Columbus, Grove City, Urbancrest, and Franklin Township. He reports to us regularly via this column, which is paid for by Dobos for Ohio.) Paid Advertisement A festive time www.columbusmessenger.com Messenger photo by Dedra Cordle The city of London’s main thoroughfare was transformed into a magical winter wonderland – albeit with rain and wind instead of snow – when the 1811 Downtown District hosted its annual Old Fashioned Christmas event on Nov. 27. Despite the inclement weather throughout the festivities, smiles and merriment were found in abundance as people shopped, made holiday crafts, chased after Santa Claus and his reindeer, and listened to carolers. Displaying his delight after artist Amy Likens turned his face into a replica of the jolly man from the North Pole is Obetz resident Jason Ellis, 9.

www.columbusmessenger.com Culture Pass expands access to the arts Columbus Metropolitan Library has partnered with BalletMet and the Columbus Symphony to make a select number of passes available for library customers to check out for free. One BalletMet Culture Pass is available at each of CML’s 23 locations beginning two weeks before each performance during the 2022-23 season. Each pass is valid for up to two people (children or adults). Ten Columbus Symphony Culture Passes will be available at each library location beginning two weeks before each performance during the 2022-23 season. Each pass is valid for one adult (children under 16 are free). Passes are valid for Masterworks performances only. CML offers its cardholders free admission to select central Ohio cultural institutions. The Culture Pass program enables library customers to borrow passes just as they would a book using their library card. This one-time pass, which must be checked out in person, grants customers limited free access to institutions that would otherwise charge admission fees. Visit columbuslibrary.org/culture-pass. CML piloted the program in 2018, offering culture passes to Franklin Park Conservatory and the Wexner Center for the Arts. Since then, CML has worked to expand the number of participating organizations. “With the help of our community partners, we’re working to expose all central Ohioans to the many renowned cultural gems we are fortunate to have at our doorstep,” said CML Chief Community Engagement Officer Donna Zuiderweg. “As a public library, our role is to ensure equal access to all, and that goes well beyond books.” “I think our art deserves to be shared with as wide an audience as possible,” said Columbus Symphony clarinetist Mark Kleine. “The arts have the ability to strengthen and speak to all corners of society, regardless of the repertoire or the venue.” Participating organizations include: BalletMet: Passes available at all CML locations; Columbus Clippers: Passes available at all locations; Columbus Museum of Art: Passes available at all locations; Columbus Symphony: Passes available at all locations; Columbus Zoo and Aquarium: Passes available at CML’s Main Library and Barnett, Driving Park, Franklinton, Hilltop, Karl Road, Linden, Marion- Franklin, Martin Luther King, Northern Lights, Northside, Parsons, Shepard and Whitehall branches; Franklin Park Conservatory: Passes available at CML’s Driving Park, Martin Luther King and Shepard branches; National Veterans Memorial and Museum: Passes available at CML’s Main Library and Barnett, Franklinton, Martin Luther King and Parsons branches; Ohio History Center: Passes available at CML’s Driving Park, Franklinton, Hilltop, Karl Road, Linden, Martin Luther King, Northern Lights and Northside branches; Pizzuti Collection of the Columbus Museum of Art: Passes available at all locations. The Culture Pass program offers each participating institution the opportunity to select which specific CML locations. Culture Passes are only available for in-person customer checkout at the specific CML locations listed above. Culture passes cannot be reserved like traditional library items. However, customers can check their availability at columbuslibrary.org by typing “Culture Pass” into the catalog search bar. Each participating organization offers their passes to CML and its customers for free. CML does not purchase passes as it does with traditional library materials. Each organization sets its own rules for how many individuals are covered under its passes and on which days the passes will be honored. Partner organizations also set the number of passes allotted to each designated CML location. December 25, 2022 - SOUTH & CANAL WINCHESTER MESSENGER - PAGE 9 Dr. Hobbs 3700 Parsons Ave. Columbus, OH 43207 New Patients & Emergencies Always Welcome (614) 491-5511 www.ScottAKellyDDS.com CONCEALING UNSIGHTLY TEETH If your front teeth are so unattractive that you try to hide them with a closed-lip smile or with your hand covering your mouth, you may be interested in one of the new advances in esthetic dentistry: laminate veneers. Veneers are customized, laboratory-produced coverings that fit over the front and sides of the tooth. They can be used to correct a variety of smilespoiling imperfections, including stains, cracks, or chips. With veneers, your teeth can be made longer or wider, and Dr. Kelly many spacing problems can be corrected. By concealing unsightly teeth, these naturallooking veneers mean that you need not cover up your smile ever again. Veneers offer certain advantages over other, more involved or time consuming cosmetic treatments. Veneering is a relatively conservative approach, requiring just a slight reduction in the tooth’s surface. From the office of: SCOTT A. KELLY, D.D.S.
