One entry in a record in office
Bob Taft: Took office amid the DeRolph v. Ohio school-funding crisis, in which the Ohio Supreme Court had already ruled the state's school-funding system unconstitutional (further rulings came in May 2000 and September 2001); per CityBeat's review, his sole initial education initiative was the comparatively modest Ohio Reads program until repeated unconstitutionality rulings forced the larger 'Rebuilding Ohio's Schools' construction plan.
