Today I bid farewell to my legislative aide, Nick, as he prepares to begin his next chapter at the Donald P. Klekamp College of Law at the University of Cincinnati. Thank you for going above and beyond for District 53, your work is appreciated by us all. UC is lucky to have you!
We hear a lot about proper government spending. That’s why, after months of hard work with local community leaders, I am pleased to announce that $10.5 million is coming to Lorain County to fund projects that all residents will benefit from. We await the Governor’s signature.
Everyone has dignity, it is simply inherent to us all. To the disabled community who fought tooth and nail to preserve the care they need and deserve in the face of derision, I am with you.
I am pleased to announce that HCR 7, which supports the American Legion Buckeye Boys State and Buckeye Girls State programs, has been adopted and enrolled. Thank you to @Ohio_Legion for helping inspire tomorrow’s leaders by offering them “a week to change a lifetime.”
Today, we honor and remember the sacrifices peace officers have given as they protect and serve our communities. As they risk everything everyday, we must reflect on how we can better support them.
When Ohio voters rejected SB 5 as an attack on their ability to collectively bargain, it unfortunately wasn’t the end of the story. Here we are again, with the endless and baseless attacks on collective bargaining and education doing nothing but dragging Ohio to the bottom.
Last night I joined graduating JVS students to celebrate their Signing Day. I am very excited to see all these talented and bright minds will do as they move into their next chapter. Thank you to the JVS and all the local businesses for making these opportunities possible.
We grew up with the family who prays together, stays together. Today I will add the family that votes together hopes together.
