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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
