Yesterday, over 1,000 protesters came to the Statehouse to oppose right-wing policies at the state and federal levels. Rain or shine, I’ll always stand with advocates calling for policies that create ladders of opportunity and ensure people are not just surviving, but thriving.

“Juneteenth is not just a celebration of freedom,” said Senator @HearcelCraig. “It is also a reminder of the resilience, strength, and unwavering spirit of African Americans who endured and overcame the brutalities of slavery.”

This week, State Senator @HearcelCraig and State Rep. @iamDontavius hosted a Juneteenth Celebration at the Ohio Statehouse to celebrate the beginning of June as the Month of Freedom and commemorate the sacrifices and achievements of Black Americans.

I am deeply honored to have served on this committee, listened to the hundreds of Ohioans who testified, and helped craft this report and legislation.

We’ve taken a critical first step toward actionable solutions to ensure every Ohioan has access to safe, affordable housing.

This week, the Senate Select Committee on Housing released a report detailing proposals to improve the availability and affordability of housing in Ohio.

"This issue is one of the most serious that has faced our state in recent years," said Senator @HearcelCraig.

Please join myself alongside State Senator Reynolds, other local elected officials, nonprofit organizations and advocates for a conversation on housing, rising property taxes, and local resources. More details below!

I am honored to have met with Whitehall High School students today with Representative @latynamhumphrey.

Thank you Scott's Miracle-Gro and Hagedorn Legacy Foundation for making this happen.

In recognition of National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month, Senator @HearcelCraig introduced the Suicide Self-Defense Act today. This legislation would give Ohioans another way to protect themselves with a commonsense gun measure.

Today, we remember the vicious attacks and loss of innocent lives on 9/11/2001 and the immense heroism displayed throughout our great nation. Last week, I had the opportunity to honor the victims and first responders by leading a prayer and planting flags at the Statehouse.

To quote Dr. King, "We shall overcome because the arc of the moral universe is long but it bends toward justice."

[Senator Hearcel F. Craig @HearcelCraig]

60 years ago this weekend, approximately 250,000 people joined Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. for the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. As we remember this monumental occasion and reflect on its legacy today, let us recommit ourselves to the work of these marchers.

This morning, I was proud to join Columbus City Schools, City Year Columbus, and the Columbus Crew to welcome students on their first day of classes!

As an enthusiastic graduate of Columbus City Schools, I am always happy to support our public schools, teachers, and students.

Voting NO on Issue 1 preserves majority rule and sends a message that the ultimate power rests with the citizens of Ohio. Your vote is your voice.

Please join me in voting NO on Issue 1.

[Senator Hearcel F. Craig @HearcelCraig]

I voted this week!

Issue 1 undermines democracy's principle of one person one vote. It is critical that this deeply troubling initiative not pass to preserve our important constitutional freedoms in the state of Ohio.

Our families and children deserve an opportunity to live. The proliferation of gun violence is a matter that concerns all of us. It requires common sense gun regulation immediately.

[Senator Hearcel F. Craig @HearcelCraig]

Yesterday, I had the privilege of standing beside our @MayorGinther and other Columbus leaders to demand action on gun violence.
