Ohio lawmakers passed a resolution under the deadline to make it more difficult to amend the state constitution with a special election planned for August. On Cincinnati Edition, we'll hear details about what got passed — and how the vote set off protests in the statehouse.
Plus, former University of Cincinnati basketball coach Bob Huggins will keep his job in West Virginia after repeatedly using a homophobic slur in reference to Xavier fans during a recent radio interview. We'll discuss his apology and Bill Cunningham's role in the conversation.

We'll discuss that and more on the weekly news review.
