Ohio sets date for redistricting commission meeting COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — The first meeting to redraw Ohio’s congressional and legislative districts is set for Friday, Gov. Mike DeWine announced. The commission will convene on Aug. 6 to begin the new redistricting process before the mid-September deadline to complete the new maps. The data Ohio is anticipating receiving around Aug. 16 will include counts of population by race, Hispanic origin, voting age and housing occupancy status at geographic levels as small as neighborhoods. The data will be used for drawing voting districts for Congress and state legislatures. The release of the data by the U.S. Census Bureau will happen more than four months after the April 1 date on which it normally arrives — due to the impact of the coronavirus. The new system, which is meant to fight gerrymandering in the state, requires an independent commission to finish redrawing legislative districts by Sept. 1. It sets a Sept. 30 deadline for the state’s General Assembly to complete a new map of congressional districts. The number of congressional districts in Ohio was reduced from 16 to 15 with the release of new census data in late April. Updated U.S. House maps will need to reflect that loss of a district.

He initially See QB | 6 Manning tamed doubts, injuries on way to HOF By Arnie Stapleton AP Pro Football Writer DENVER — Peyton Manning was coming off a series of neck operations in between the storied chapters of his Hall of Fame career in 2012 when former college teammate and then-Colorado Rockies slugger Todd Helton invited him to a private workout at Coors Field. The two superstars of their respective sports who played together at Tennessee in the 1990s headed to the batting cages under the stands to throw the football around. Helton thought Manning was goofing around when his first throw fluttered and fell short. It was no joke. Manning was in the midst of retraining his brain to release the ball on time and on target after missing the entire 2011 season and undergoing several cervical spine surgeries that left him with unyielding numbness in the fingertips of his right hand. “He had nothing,” Helton recounted several years ago. “But I knew he’d come back and be Peyton Manning again because nobody else works that hard.” That work ethic allowed Manning to overcome the heartache of his split with the Indianapolis Colts, the doubts about his football future and nerve damage in his right arm to go 50-15 in Denver and set numerous passing records while burnishing his lofty credentials as one of the greatest passers in NFL history. Manning overcame his neck problems to throw 140 of his 539 career touchdown passes for Denver, including a record 55 in 2013. In four years, he led the Broncos to four AFC West titles, two conference championships and a Super Bowl 50 triumph after overcoming a serious foot injury to go with the Super Bowl he won with the Colts nearly a decade earlier. Manning retired a month after becoming the first starting quarterback to win Super Bowls with two franchises, and he was elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame 24 hours before his friend and longtime nemesis Tom Brady joined him in the exclusive club by leading Tampa Bay over Kansas City in Super Bowl 55 six months ago. “I certainly wanted to play for the Indianapolis Colts my entire career because they were the team that drafted me” No. 1 overall in 1998, Manning said as he reflected on his upcoming induction into Canton. “I was fascinated by John Elway being only a Bronco, Dan Marino being only a Dolphin, Troy Aikman-Cowboys, my dad drafted by New Orleans, majority of his career lived in New Orleans. So, that was my plan all along.” The Colts moved on to Andrew Luck after Manning missed the 2011 season and Indianapolis secured the No. 1 overall pick in the 2012 NFL draft. After an emotional farewell to Indy, Manning embarked on the most anticipated free agency tour since Reggie White bolted Philadelphia for Green Bay in 1993. “And Denver just, boy, they just welcomed me with open arms,” Manning recounted. “They were the only team that understood I think what I was going through emotionally, physically, and I think a lot of that is Elway. Elway flirted going to other teams, rumors or whatnot and I think he knew how probably that would have affected him. He certainly knew injuries.” Manning said only the Broncos were willing to meet him halfway. “They were the only team that said, ‘Hey, See MANNING | 6 Gregory Bull | AP Simone Biles, of the United States, center, celebrates after teammate Mykayla Skinner won the silver medal in the vault during the artistic gymnastics women’s apparatus final Sunday at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, Japan.

She went into extensive detail about “the twisties” last week, explaining she lost the confidence of knowing what her body was going to do in midair. It’s not the first time Biles dealt with the problem, though she did say the issues followed her to both uneven bars and beam. Previous bouts with the phenomenon were limited to floor exercise and vault, where more twisting elements are required. “I’m really proud of her for coming back,” said American Jade Carey, who won gold on floor exercise Monday while Biles watched surrounded by the rest of the U.S. women’s team. “She’s been through a lot this Olympics so I’m really proud and happy to see her going after beam.” Finishing her second Olympics — and perhaps her career — on balance beam is poetic justice of sorts for Biles. She got bronze in Rio despite grabbing the 4-inch piece of wood that’s 4 feet off the ground when she almost slipped midroutine. It was her fifth medal at the Games. The other four were gold. Biles has called the bronze the medal she earned in Brazil that she’s proudest of, and she’s taken to task those who called it a disappointment, using it as proof to the double standard she believes follows her whenever she competes. Athletes from all over — both at the Olympics and elsewhere — have rallied around her over the past week, praising her courage for speaking up about the importance of mental health. Running mates: Chubb, Browns sign 3-year extension By Tom Withers AP Sports Writer BEREA, Ohio — Nick Chubb may celebrate his huge contract extension by running extra sprints or lifting more weights. “That’s who I am,” the running back said. And it’s why the Browns love him. Chubb signed a threeyear, $36.6 million contract extension Monday with Cleveland, an indication of the team’s regard for his skills as an elite running back and appreciation for his quiet, unassuming leadership. The Browns locked up the talented 25-year-old Chubb — he’ll also get $20 million guaranteed — for the future as they embark on what could be a special season in Cleveland. Expectations are running wild after the Browns ended their long playoff drought and won in the postseason last season. Chubb has already rushed for 3,557 yards and 28 touchdowns in three seasons, and there’s no reason to think he won’t keep rolling. But what separates Chubb from other backs, and from most players, is his selflessness and work ethic. “He doesn’t say much, and I think that sometimes seems like he’s not a leader in that regard, and that couldn’t be farther from the truth,” coach Kevin Stefanski said. “He’s a leader in his action.” �COMICS Ohio Valley Publishing Tuesday, August 3, 2021 5 Having A Yard Sale?

The U.S. women’s soccer team can’t say the same. Jessie Fleming scored on a penalty kick in the 74th minute and Canada earned a 1-0 semifinal victory over the United States in the Olympic women’s soccer competition on Monday. Canada goes on to face Sweden in the gold medal match, while the U.S. will play Australia for the bronze. Sweden beat Australia 1-0 in the other semifinal. It is the second straight Olympics that the United States has been knocked out of contention for the gold medal match. “I think this is my first loss ever to Canada,” American star Megan Rapinoe said. “It sucks not to be able to compete for a gold medal, which is what we wanted. Not a great performance, either. That’s the most frustrating thing.” The Americans were bounced from the 2016 Games by Sweden in the quarterfinals. The U.S. team goes on to play in the bronze medal match in Kashima on Thursday. Canada had not won against the United States since 2001. In basketball, A’ja Wilson scored 22 points and Breanna Stewart added 17 to help the U.S. beat France 93-82 in their final pool play match. The win was the 52nd in a row for the U.S. going back to the bronze medal game of the 1992 Olympics. The U.S. went undefeated in group play and advanced to the quarterfinals. The Americans (3-0) haven’t lost a game in group play since women’s basketball was added to the Olympics in 1976. “It wasn’t a must win, but we always want to win,” Stewart said. “To have that momentum going into the quarterfinals, this is where we start to peak.” While the U.S. women’s basketball team has dominated at the Olympics, the women’s volleyball team is seeking its first gold medal ever.

GOP senators cautioned that they needed time to digest the massive bill. Formally the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, the proposal clocked in at some 2,700 pages late Sunday after a hurryup-and-wait rare weekend session. The final product was not intended to stray from the broad outline a bipartisan group of senators had negotiated for weeks with the White House. Schumer has said a final vote could be held “in a matter of days.” “Let’s start voting on amendments,” Schumer said as the Senate opened for business on Monday. “The longer it takes to finish the bill, the longer we will be here.” A key part of President Joe Biden’s agenda, the bipartisan bill is the first phase of the president’s infrastructure plan. It calls for $550 billion in new spending over five years above projected federal levels — one of the most substantial expenditures on the nation’s roads, bridges, waterworks, broadband and the electric grid in years. The Republican leader, Sen. Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, will play a key role in the bill’s final outcome. So far, he has sided with those voting to allow debate to proceed, but he has not signaled how he will ultimately vote. He described the bill Monday as a “good and important jumping off point” for a robust, bipartisan amendment process. He also warned Democrats against setting “any artificial timetable.” “Infrastructure is exactly the kind of subject that Congress should be able to address across the aisle,” McConnell said. Senators and staff labored behind the scenes for days to write the massive bill. It was supposed to be ready Friday, but by Sunday, even more glitches were caught and changes made. Late Sunday, most of the 10 senators involved in the bipartisan effort rose on the Senate floor to mark the unveiling of the text. “We know that this has been a long and sometimes difficult process, but we are proud this evening to announce this legislation,” said Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, D-Ariz., a lead negotiator. The bill showed “we can put aside our own political differences for the good of the country,” she said. J. Scott Applewhite | AP Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., walks to the chamber Monday as the Senate works to advance the $1 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill at the Capitol in Washington. The 2,700-page bill includes new expenditures on roads, bridges, water pipes, broadband and other projects, plus cybersecurity. Sen. Rob Portman of Ohio, a Republican negotiator, framed the legislation as something that would help the U.S. better compete with China and would make the “economy more efficient, more productive” after years of struggle getting a public works bill off the ground. “People have talked about infrastructure in this city forever,” Portman said. Over the long weekend of starts and stops, Schumer repeatedly warned that he was prepared to keep lawmakers in Washington for as long as it took to complete votes on both the bipartisan infrastructure plan and a budget blueprint that would allow the Sen- ate to begin work later this year on a massive, $3.5 trillion social, health and environmental bill. Republicans counter that they just had a chance to begin fully reviewing the bill late Sunday. “We shouldn’t sacrifice adequate time on this bill merely because the Democratic leader would like to spend next week jamming a 100% partisan piece of legislation through the United States Senate,” said Sen. John Thune of South Dakota. Among the major new investments, the bipartisan package is expected to provide $110 billion for roads and bridges, $39 billion for public transit and $66 billion for rail. There’s also to be $55 billion for water and wastewater infrastructure as well as billions for airports, ports, broadband internet and electric vehicle charging stations. US employers ratchet up pressure on the unvaccinated By Alexandra Olson AP Business Writer NEW YORK — Employers are losing patience with unvaccinated workers. For months, most employers relied on information campaigns, bonuses and other incentives to encourage their workforces to get the COVID-19 shot. Now, a growing number are imposing rules to make it more onerous for employees to refuse, from outright mandates to requiring the unvaccinated to undergo regular testing. Among employers getting tougher are the federal government, the state governments of California and New York, tech giants Google and Facebook, the Walt Disney Co. and the NFL. Some hospitals, universities, restaurants, bars and other entertainment venues have also started requiring vaccines. But the new measures are unlikely to affect many of the millions of unvaccinated Americans. Many of the companies that are requiring shots have mostly office workers who are already largely vaccinated and are reluctant to work alongside those who aren’t. In contrast, major companies that rely on low-income blue-collar workers — food manufacturers, warehouses, supermarkets and other store chains — are shying away from mandates for fear of driving away employees and worsening the labor shortages such businesses are facing. Tyson Foods, for instance, said about half of its U.S. workforce — 56,000 employees — has received shots after the meat and poultry processor hosted more than 100 vaccination events since February. But the company said it has no plans to impose a mandate to reach the other half. Walmart and Amazon, the country’s two largest private employers, have also declined to require its hourly workers to get vaccinated, continuing to rely on strategies such as bonuses and onsite access to shots. But in a potentially powerful signal, Walmart said employees at its headquarters will be required to get vaccinated by Oct. 4. The biggest precedent so far has come from the federal government, the nation’s largest employer. President Joe Biden announced last week that all federal employees and contractors must get vaccinated or put up with weekly testing and lose privileges such as official travel. The federal government has said it will cover the costs of the weekly tests. As for other employers, insurance may pay for such testing at some workplaces but not others. Biden’s decision could embolden other employers by signaling they would be on solid legal ground to impose similar rules, said Brian Kropp, chief of research at consulting firm Gartner’s human resources practice. But Kropp said some companies face complicated considerations that go beyond legalities, including deep resistance to vaccines in many states where they operate. Retailers like Walmart might have a hard time justifying vaccine requirements for their workers while allowing shoppers to remain unvaccinated, Kropp added. Stores have mostly avoided vaccine requirements for customers for fear of alienating them and because of the difficulty in trying to verify their status. In surveys by Gartner, fewer than 10% of employers have said they intend to require all employees to be vaccinated. But a shift is building amid frustration over plateauing vaccination rates and alarm over the spread of the more contagious delta variant. Julie Carr Smyth | AP Republican state Rep. Jeff LaRe, a candidate of Ohio’s 15th congressional district, speaks to a gathering of Republicans on July 26 at 3 Brothers Diner in Grove City, Ohio. The special election for the seat today has suddenly becoming a high-stakes test of former President Donald Trump’s endorsement power. Special election to test Trump’s endorsement power By Jill Colvin, Thomas Beaumont and Julie Carr Smyth Associated Press GROVE CITY, Ohio — As soon as it became clear last week that a Texas congressional candidate backed by Donald Trump would be defeated in a special election, the former president’s allies quickly shifted their attention to Ohio to ward off another embarrassing loss. Make America Great Again, a super PAC chaired by Trump’s former campaign manager, quietly purchased $300,000 in Ohio television advertising. The buy was intended to provide a late-stage boost to another Trump-backed candidate facing a crowded field of Republicans in a special election on Tuesday. The midsummer race for Ohio’s traditionally Republican 15th Congressional District wouldn’t typically get much national attention. But it’s suddenly becoming a high-stakes test of Trump’s endorsement power, which he has wielded as a cudgel to silence opposition in the GOP. Low-turnout special elections aren’t perfect measures of Trump’s strength and he remains a powerhouse in GOP politics, revealing over the weekend that his political action committees are sitting on a massive $100 million pile of cash. But a second loss in two weeks could chip away at Trump’s selfproclaimed kingmaker status heading into next year’s midterm elections. “If it happens a couple times, candidates and political professionals — they’re not stupid — they’re going to say you can win this race even if you’re not endorsed by Trump,” said Ohio Republican consultant Ryan Stubenrauch. In other cases, Trump’s decision to throw his weight behind candidates with baggage, including several running against GOP incumbents who crossed him by voting in favor of his second impeachment, has put him at odds with other party leaders. Some Republicans fear his moves could complicate efforts to win back majorities in the House and Senate next year. In Ohio, Trump has endorsed Mike Carey, a coal lobbyist who is among 10 Republicans jockeying to replace former GOP Rep. Steve Stivers, who retired from Congress earlier this year. He faces a formidable lineup, including three current state lawmakers: state Sens. Bob Peterson and Stephanie Kunze and state Rep. Jeff LaRe. Former state Rep. Ron Hood is also a contender. LaRe is backed by Stivers, who held the seat for a decade. Hood, meanwhile, has generous support from U.S. Sen. Rand Paul’s political action committee. Candidate Ruth Edmonds, a Black minister and former Columbus NAACP president is endorsed by religious conservative James Dobson and Ken Blackwell, a former Ohio elections chief who served on Trump’s transition team. In an interview, Carey described the pitch he made to Trump when the two met for what he thought would be a photo-op earlier this year. “I said, ‘Listen, Mr. President, you’ve been somebody that supported a lot of political candidates over the course of your lifetime, and many of them let you down.’ I said, ‘I’m kind of in the same boat — I mean, on a much smaller scale,’” Carey recalled. “After about an hour and 20 minutes, he said, ‘I’m all in. I’m going to endorse you and do whatever it takes to get you over the finish line.’” Trump, who headlined a rally with Carey in June, reupped his endorsement last week, decrying candidates who have used his likeness or cited him in ads to try to woo voters. “I don’t know them, and don’t even know who they are. But I do know who Mike Carey is — I know a lot about him, and it is all good,” Trump said in a statement. “Let there be no further doubt who I have Endorsed!” About 560,000 voters are registered to vote in Ohio’s 15th Congressional District, which leans Republican. Half of its voters live in parts of Franklin and Fairfield counties, primarily suburban Columbus communities that Republicans for generations could count on, but where Trump lost support in 2020. In the sparsely populated remainder of the district, Trump improved over his 2016 performance, as he did throughout rural Ohio. It can be tough to draw firm conclusions from a pair of low-turnout special elections, especially in Ohio, where the large field of candidates could split the vote in unexpected ways. But Trump has put great personal stock in his endorsements and frequently touts his record of wins. His formal backing remains highly coveted, with candidates making pilgrimages to Trump’s homes in Florida and New Jersey to win his favor. �NEWS/WEATHER 8 Tuesday, August 3, 2021 Agreement shows utility paid regulator for future help By Mark Gillispie Associated Press CLEVELAND — Documents released Monday show that FirstEnergy Corp. paid Sam Randazzo tens of millions for years, including $4.3 million he received to help the utility shortly before he was nominated as Ohio’s top utility regulator. The office of the Ohio Consumers’ Counsel released consulting contracts between FirstEnergy Corp. and the future chair of the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio, Sam Randazzo, listing around $11 million in payments made to his company between 2013 and 2019. As part of a deferred prosecution agreement made public a week ago, FirstEnergy said it paid Randazzo $22 million over the years, including the $4.3 million for his future work on FirstEnergy’s behalf. Randazzo “would perform official action in his capacity” as chair of the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio to include passage of a nuclear bailout bill known as House Bill 6 and other FirstEnergy “legislative and regulatory priorities, as requested and as opportunities arose,” according to the statement of facts signed by current CEO and President Steven Strah. The statement said FirstEnergy “had no legal obligation to make the payment.” To avoid criminal prosecution on a federal conspiracy charge, FirstEnergy has agreed to pay $230 million in penalties and abide by a lengthy list of provisions for the next three years.

Blackwood, a spokesperson for Ohio Consumers’ Counsel Bruce Weston said. “Unfortunately, progress has been slow.” FirstEnergy spokesperson Jennifer Young on Monday said: “While we’re unable to comment on the contract in light of pending proceedings, we are carefully reviewing and revising our political activity and lobbying/ consulting practices, including requiring robust disclosures about lobbying activities.” Randazzo denied wrongdoing in a statement released by his attorney last week. He has not been criminally charged. “I executed my duties as PUCO chair conscientiously, lawfully, and mindful of striking the right balance between competing interests,” Randazzo said. “At no time prior to or after my appointment to the PUCO was I asked or did I agree to exercise authority as a public official or perform any official action in my capacity as chair to further FirstEnergy’s legislative, regulatory or other interests.” TODAY 8 AM WEATHER Royalty 61° 2 PM Contest From page 1 date.
