After months of indecision, state lawmakers appear ready to finally kill the $1 billion nuclear plant bailout at the heart of a $61 million Statehouse bribery scandal.
The head of the commission that regulates Ohio utilities resigned in the wake of a widening federal bribery and racketeering scandal tied to subsidies for two struggling nuclear plants.
Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost on Wednesday filed a civil racketeering lawsuit against FirstEnergy, former Ohio House Speaker Larry Householder and others tied to an alleged $60 million bribery scheme.
