  • Ohio General Election Guide General Election: November 3, 2020
    Ohio General Election Guide General Election: November 3, 2020 Summary of Races: The biggest story in Statehouse races as we approach Election Day is the recent charges that have been brought against Larry Householder. The criminal complaint brought against him alleges he took part in a $61 million racketeering scheme. As the case pends in federal court, many of the campaign funds that the House Republican Caucus rely on for financial support have been frozen and likely will not be able to be accessed until after the election. In what is already a tough cycle because of the presidential election, having the financial resources compromised puts many of the races in question. Having competed against a super majority for several years and seeing the presidential election as a boon for their base, the House Democrats were already looking to pick up quite a few seats. With the new financial woes that the Republicans could face, Democrats see this election as their chance to bring better balance to the party scale in the People’s Chamber. This impact could bleed into the Senate races as well. It is also worth noting that although the House has voted Larry Householder out of the Speaker position, he remains a Representative and will also still appear on the ballot in his district. However, since the news of the criminal charges broke, four individuals have declared candidacies against him. Since the petition deadline had passed by the time of this arrest, all four opponents will be write-in candidates. At a minimum, there will be at least 19 new members of the House and five new members of the Senate.

  • Sent a Letter Urging Gov. Dewine to Veto Senate Bill (SB) 52
    June 30, 2021 Governor Mike DeWine Riffe Center, 30th Floor 77 South High Street Columbus, OH 43215 Dear Governor DeWine: We write to you today to urge you to veto Senate Bill 52. If enacted, this legislation will unfairly impose on the clean energy market and infringe on personal property rights. We urge you to veto Senate Bill 52 for the following reasons: 1. It will make it harder for renewable energy to enter the power generation market and will keep utility costs higher than necessary for all Ohioans. By erecting barriers to and injecting uncertainty in solar and wind development, it will significantly curtail supply of the most affordably priced generation available and therefore drive-up costs for everyone. Embrace capitalism. Let the market work. 2. SB 52 tramples on personal property rights, which has led to Ohio Farm Bureau opposition throughout the entire legislative process. In the already volatile business of agriculture, it is in no one’s best interest to remove a source of stable revenue for farmers that could last for decades. 3. SB 52 could cost Ohio thousands of jobs and billions in private investments. On March 23, 2021, Alex Fischer of the Columbus Partnership provided opponent testimony to SB 52 in the House Public Utilities Committee. Mr. Fischer explained his opposition by saying the following: “Currently, the Columbus Region has more than 15 companies considering capital investment amounts of over $14 billion dollars, in turn creating over 20,000 jobs. Each of those investment opportunities either require or prefer renewables as the source of energy.” 4.
