• Lawmakers easily approve Ohio Medicaid changes after earlier controversy (ideastream.org) — Ashville’s own Rep. Brian Stewart helped reshape a major Medicaid and food stamp fraud bill that ultimately dropped a controversial ban on paying family caregivers. Lawmakers from both parties backed the revised measure, which tightens verification and penalties in Ohio’s Medicaid and SNAP programs while keeping support in place for families who rely on in‑home care.
