Ohio AG Orders Columbus Schools to Resume Nonpublic Student Transportation

Attorney General Dave Yost threatens legal action over district's refusal to transport charter and parochial students, citing state law violations.

Columbus Public Schools voted to halt transportation for some nonpublic students due to costs and logistical issues.
Attorney General Dave Yost issued a cease-and-desist letter demanding compliance with state transportation laws.
The district plans to reimburse families for transportation costs at the end of the school year.
Yost condemned the district's actions as a coercive tactic to force students back into public schools.
Legal action is imminent if the district does not resume transportation services.
