Ohio House Passes Bill Punishing State Employees Snooping in Child Support Databases
The Ohio House immediately passed a recently proposed bill for preventing and punishing state employees who mischievously or maliciously access child support and other family services records in the state’s database. The bill, which faces ratification from the Ohio state Senate soon, follows a notable incident involving state employee Helen Jones-Kelley accessing the family services records of Samuel “Joe the Plumber” Wurzelbacher following his brief fame during the presidential elections. Following an investigation, Jones-Kelly, as well as two of her subordinates, was suspended without pay for their participation in infringing the rights of Joe the Plumber and misusing government database records.
The newly proposed bill will assist the government of the state of Ohio in monitoring and tracking employee access to many of records of the child and family services division of the state of Ohio. Currently, the Department of Taxation is testing a similar strategy, as well.
