Many state employees have been laid off in recent months, and many more have been asked to take unpaid furlough days. These actions were taken by state leaders to help save state dollars. Some Ohio lawmakers think more cuts are in order. But as Ohio Public Radio's Jo Ingles reports, what these lawmakers want to cut might come as a surprise to many Ohioans.
