| Collapse all
- My plan is to go to Columbus to get things done. Democrats can be more than window dressing in our State Legislature, they do pass legislation in Columbus. My main priority is working to advocate that our budget reflects the priorities of the
people of the Dayton region – and that the money we commit in the form of taxes comes back to us in the form of services and initiatives that solve our problems.
My top priorities as State Senator will focus on Ohio's urgent challenges. The state's 50th ranking in children's services and 44th ranking in health outcomes in the nation highlight a crisis due to misguided policies and insufficient funding. - In the State Legislature my priorities will be education and children’s services, preventing price-gouging in healthcare, addressing Dayton’s African American maternal and infant mortality crisis, and securing more funding for mental health services and addiction programs. Housing is another key concern, with the Dayton region in need of more mid-market housing. I have successfully supported strategic rezoning for new housing, fostering economic growth and fiscal sustainability in our city.
- I grew up in a household where fighting hunger and poverty were top priorities. My dad, former Dayton Congressman Tony Hall, was recognized as the top fighter on hunger issues while he served in Congress, and I learned from his passion, and from his public service skills. I think the legislature needs to tackle access to a complete, healthy diet by every citizen of the state, regardless of where they live. That means addressing food deserts, as I did on the Kettering City Council. I believe the legislature needs to address the rising costs of fees and services that do not do anything to help people lift themselves out of poverty – escalating health insurance rates, prescription drug prices, and housing costs.
Housing - there is a need for more housing in the Dayton region. I will actively encourage rezoning efforts to accommodate increased housing and businesses. As a result we will have hundreds of new mid-market homes built in our region. Through rezoning, my vision for a vibrant and growing community will pave the way for additional new business development.
