In celebration of America’s 250th anniversary, I wanted to highlight some of the amazing artists from Ohio who have greatly contributed to this nation’s history. Art is so important for creating an enriching and vibrant culture, and Ohio is lucky to be home to so many talented people!

When there is waste, fraud, and abuse, we should do our best to find it and stop it. The Republicans have been in charge for the last 16 years, and instead of owning up to their own failures, they’re just playing the blame game. As a result, our most vulnerable Ohioans will pay the price.

Today, we remember the brave Americans who gave their lives in service to our nation. Their sacrifice secured the freedoms we enjoy every day. Continue the tradition of fighting for democracy and against fascism

For this week’s , I wanted to talk about how Medicaid expansion has significantly improved the health of all Ohioans and how important it is to protect these vital services. As Ohio Republicans attempt to dismantle this system the next few weeks, it is important to stay updated about what’s happening at the Statehouse. Swipe to learn more!

Ohio Republicans are trying to accuse Medicaid of having rampant fraud as an excuse to cut essential services for vulnerable populations. Medicaid funding is critical for children, pregnant women, and disabled adults across our state. When you cut Medicaid you hurt everyone through higher premiums and sicker patients .

On Monday, Rep. Lett and I hosted a town hall in Dublin, and we talked to constituents about the most pressing issues facing them. We discussed everything from rising costs to school vouchers to the importance of Medicaid access. Attending town halls like these are a great way to stay informed about what’s going on at the Statehouse, which is super important in these chaotic times!
