The bill H. B. No. 2025-2026, introduced by Representative Moore and co-sponsored by several representatives, aims to designate a specific portion of U.S. Route 22 in Harrison County as the "PFC Thomas 'Tommy' Pizzino Memorial Highway." This designation is intended to honor the memory of PFC Thomas Pizzino and will apply to both the eastbound and westbound lanes of U.S. Route 22, stretching from the eastern border of Harrison County to the intersection with State Route 151.
To implement this designation, the bill enacts a new section, 5534.668, into the Revised Code. The section specifies that the director of transportation is authorized to erect suitable markers along the highway to indicate its new name. This addition to the law serves to formally recognize the highway in honor of PFC Pizzino, ensuring that his contributions are remembered by the community.
