Well you see, most of the time, levies are needed due to the fact that it’s local government’s STATUTORY OBLIGATION to fund those things that support their citizens quality of life. And the state is NOT being a good partner in this statutory work FOR THE PEOPLE. The ACTUAL problem is that the Supermajority of Republicans at the state level of government don’t believe in following their Constitutional duty for which they swear an Oath to serve. They’ve been shifting these taxes onto the local property owners for far too long. Want them to pay their fair share and FUND OUR POLICE, FIREFIGHTERS, roads and bridges, waste collection, water works, Public Education, etc.???? Then contact your lawmakers and demand they do: •Find your State Rep here: ohiohouse.gov •Find your State Senator here: ohiosenate.gov

The problem is the appraisal and levy’s unfortunately. County needs to do a better job managing money, and voters need to really look into “why” a levy is needed

1.67M students use public school in Ohio. Follow OH’s Constitution or change it. It’s that simple. You can’t fund a secondary system with public money if you don’t adequately fund the primary system. My tax payers pay more bc the gov’t says so. Follow the law or change it.

140,000 students in Ohio use Ed Choice scholarships to attend non-public schools. 42,000 students couldn't otherwise afford private/parochial school without the Ed Choice scholarship. An Ohio appeals court just ruled the scholarships unconstitutional.

The messaging from Ohio’s supermajority of control 🤦🏻‍♀️ “A woman who has never held elected office is unfit because WE haven’t solved Ohio’s problems after DECADES of controlling state government.” Make it make sense. 🤔

More vouchers mean higher costs for Ohio communities. As voucher spending continues to grow, local taxpayers are left carrying more of the burden. #VouchersHurtOhio
