Before Ohio considers dramatically increasing vouchers to benefit private schools, the public schools that serve 90% of our kids need to be fully and fairly funded. @OhioEA https://t.co/xLtjQxDJsx
@darreldrowland Yes, and to have the opposing team Bengals' fans lighting candles of support for Damar outside the UC hospital was amazing. Maybe politicians could follow this example!
Newly released documents show how FirstEnergy worked with DeWine administration officials & lawmakers to lobby for the passage of HB6, the bill at the center of the largest corruption scandal in Ohio history. Here's what @Jake_Zuckerman and I found https://t.co/xJBGnZIE2p
Fox News has trouble with key details like Paul Whelan,the former Marine detainee in Russia,has citizenship in 3 countries besides the US and received a BCD (Bad Conduct Discharge) from the Marines. Also, the US State Dept. continues to negotiate for his speedy release!
I want to see Whalen freed, but I object to gaslighting his military record. He IS NOT a “retired Marine.” He was court-martialed and got a bad conduct discharge. Most Vets earn an Honorable Discharge. Whelan is in the 1/2 of 1% who are punitively discharged for criminal conduct.
President Biden committed to rebuild the economy from the bottom up and middle out, lower costs for Americans, strengthen manufacturing and supply chains back home, and ensure our economy works for working people.
And he’s getting it done.
If, as @FrankLaRose says, Ohio's elections have been free, fair, and unaffected by voter fraud, then there is only one reason to purge voter rolls, reduce voting locations in urban areas, and require additional forms of ID:
to make it harder to vote.
HB 294:
❌Prohibits prepaid return postage for absentee ballot requests
❌Eliminates the last day of early voting
❌Limits county Board of Election to 3 drop boxes
❌Shortens absentee ballot request window by 4 days for mail-in ballots
We urge a NO vote.

@brycecovert@KatyAShanahan Nope, deal gives railroaders 7 days paid sick leave and 24% raise. Good start to better working conditions...but not enough!
Democratic-affiliated candidates won control over the State Board of Education in Ohio, and one week later, the Republican lawmakers moved a bill forward to strip their powers.

The two largest US oil companies have raked in more than $30 billion in the last three months.
Don't tell me inflation is being driven by government spending or workers asking for better wages.
Today we saw a grotesque display of disregard for the voters of Ohio as Frank LaRose proposed permanently changing the Ohio constitution to destroy majority rule for ballot measures and take away our power.
PepsiCo raised prices by 17%. Their profits went up by more than 20%.
Chipotle raised prices by nearly 15%. Their profits went up by nearly 26%.
See the pattern? Corporations are raising prices under the cover of inflation, after their inflation-related costs have been covered.
