โŒ HB416

Designate Police Officer Phillip Wagner Memorial Highway

Current Status: In House Committee (Transportation)

Summary

This bill designates a portion of United States Route 6 in Lorain County as the 'Police Officer Phillip Wagner Memorial Highway' and allows the director of transportation to erect suitable markers along the highway indicating its name.

Rationale

The bill does not align with the Libertarian principles of limited government intervention and individual rights, as it involves government action to designate a memorial highway, which could be seen as unnecessary state involvement in public naming.

Risks and Concerns

  • Increases government involvement in public affairs
  • Potentially diverts resources from more pressing issues
  • May set a precedent for further government naming actions
