I am working to ensure that policies are in place and resources are available so that local governments can adequately serve the community.
Law enforcement, infrastructure support and transportation are important tools to every community. These are essential for economic growth.
I was successful in removing a local hiring ban in the state's $7 billion transportation budget bill,. The negotiations I held with members of the Ohio House and Senate stopped the potential devastation of Akron families and jobs and our state's economy.
