The Supreme Court got it right on Springfield's Haitian TPS case. Temporary status shouldn't become permanent policy.

If we track sex offenders, why not repeat domestic abusers?

In my latest column, I argue Ohio should create a registry for repeat domestic violence offenders to help protect potential victims.

.@MikeDeWine says Ohio should end the death penalty. I disagree.

DNA and forensic advances have made our justice system stronger. Ohio should reform capital punishment, not abolish it.

Student loan debt isn't just hurting graduates—it's hurting families and our economy.

Instead of endless debates, what if we focused on practical solutions that help borrowers and increase accountability?

My column in @daytondailynews, @journalnews, and @springfieldnews:

Most people can name the president. Far fewer can name their county recorder, auditor, engineer, or clerk of courts — even though those officials often have a bigger impact on daily life.

My Sunday column in the Dayton Daily News, Journal-News, Springfield News-Sun looks at whether Ohio Republicans may have a growing political problem: gas prices.

When affordability becomes the top issue, voters tend to demand accountability.

@VivekRamaasy says Medicaid spending and fraud are the “elephant in the room” in Ohio’s budget debate.

Could this become the defining issue of Ohio’s 2026 governor’s race?

Ohio families are being taxed from every direction — property taxes, levies, inflation, and rising costs everywhere.

At some point, government has to learn families aren’t an unlimited ATM.

The ballot is set. The question now is turnout.

Ohio’s November elections — governor to local races — will be decided by who shows up.

Most important race on your ballot this May?

Where does Ohio school funding really come from?

Hint: it’s not mostly the state.

Local property taxes do the heavy lifting—shaping opportunities based on where students live.

I break it down in this week’s column 👇

[Robert Scott @robertscott3]

When people talk about property taxes in Ohio, the focus is usually on homeowners. But businesses pay them too—and those costs show up in the prices we all pay. Landlords often pass them with higher rents. Property taxes ripple through the entire economy.

📰 My latest column in the Dayton Daily News, Journal-News, and Springfield News-Sun tackles a big question:

If Ohio eliminates property taxes… who pays the bills?
