Monroe, Belmont, and Jefferson Counties lost more than $1,723,689.00 to #ECOT since the scandal-ridden charter school opened in 2012, according to a recent report from @innovationohio. The Ohio Valley deserves better. We need to support public schools and invest in our students.

My service as a public school teacher in a low-income school situated in rural America has showed me the urgent need to create an equitable school funding formula and put teachers and students before politics and special interests.

I'm disappointed by the 5-4 ruling issued by the #SCOTUS in the #JANUSvsAFSCME case today. Nevertheless, working and middle class families will come together to advance our fight for a fair economy for everyone.

We deserve better here in Appalachian Ohio. I think our region is one that is worth fighting for. That's why I hope to dedicate my life to improving education and fighting poverty right here in... https://t.co/TFGZRAjW9R

The Martins Ferry Times Leader, the Monroe County Beacon, the Steubenville Herald-Star, and the Barnesville Enterprise all published my LTE about #ECOT robbing our schools. Now, @innovationohio's @StephenODyer discovered #ECOT ripped off taxpayers at least $189 million. Shameful.

I enjoyed spending time with @LouGentileOhio, @Milleson95th, and many others from across the Ohio Valley tonight in support of @jackbellaire. Monroe County and the entire Valley is fortunate to have Jack fighting for us in Columbus.

@filibadger @C_Taylor_Myers It's a story we have to tell.

ICYMI: The Martins Ferry Times Leader published my LTE titled "ECOT robbed Ohio Valley schools." Monroe, Belmont, and Jefferson Counties lost more than $1,723,689.00 to #ECOT since 2012, according to a recent report from @innovationohio. Our students deserve better. #Chartergate

Our democracy is worse off as a result of today's split decision from the #SCOTUS. Republicans like @JonHusted should be ashamed of themselves for trying to make it harder to vote. This is why it's so important we elect @RichCordray, @KathleenClyde, & @SteveDettelbach. #OHDems

I'm a proud @NEAToday member. I'm also proud to be the son & grandson of @steelworkers. That's why I know that right to work is wrong. End of story. Every worker deserves the right to collectively bargain for better wages & benefits; that's why we must knockout right to work.

[C. Taylor Myers @MyersForOhio]

It's an honor to serve on the Beallsville High School Board of Directors. I am who I am because of my education and my community. We had a great time celebrating our alumni and graduates last night. It was great to see my 5th grade teacher Miss Frye & my DI Coach Dyann too!

87 years ago, 82 miners lost their lives when a coal mine collapsed in Athens County. B/c of @ohioaflcio, @MineWorkers, and many others, things like that don't happen anymore.

Working Ohioans need leaders who get this legacy, not pols like @KeithFaber who support Right to Work.

[C. Taylor Myers @MyersForOhio]

"(Myers) said he thinks professionals should be able to come together to 'collectively bargain for wages and benefits'.” Damn right I do. #1u #Solidarity https://t.co/au8SAt33Xw

Yesterday at @ncae's Day of Advocacy I spoke with @RachaelRiley85 from the @Daily_Dispatch. As a proud member of the @NEAToday, I was excited to join my union brothers and sisters in Raleigh to march for our students and rally for respect. #1u #Red4Ed #NCAEStrong #Solidarity

This week @TFA_ENC helped me shout out my friend and mentor Gov. @Ted_Strickland for #TeacherAppreciationWeek! Thanks Ted for all you do and have done for Ohio's students and our state's future. #OneDay @TeachForAmerica #teacherappreciation

Today I cast my ballot in the Democratic Primary Election in Ohio. I was proud to vote for @jackbellaire, @LouGentileOhio, @GFavede, @ZackSpaceOhio, @SteveDettelbach, @RobforOHIO, @KathleenClyde, and @SherrodBrown. Looking forward to voting for these awesome candidates in Nov.

My heart aches as our country mourns the tremendous loss of #BarbaraBush. Mrs. Bush served not only as the wife and mother of two Presidents, but as an engaged citizen and champion of child literacy. My thoughts and prayers are with the Bush family tonight.
