COLUMBUS – State Representative Roy Klopfenstein (R-Haviland) introduced road naming legislation today to honor the sacrifices made by veterans. The proposed legislation will designate a portion of U.S. 30 to the Van Wert County Line as the “Van Wert County Veteran’s Memorial Highway.”

“Ohio is home to more than 830,000 former service members – the sixth-largest population of veterans in the United States,” said Klopfenstein. “We are thankful for those who answered the call to serve. Introducing this legislation is one way to show appreciation to our military population.”

The measure awaits a bill number and committee assignment.
