I will not blame the rise of an authoritarian on those who have been fighting tooth and nail against it. You shouldn’t either.

My bill would remove the middlemen in Ohio Medicaid, saving money and leading to better care. "As federal funds become less and less certain, we need to think differently in order to make sure people can still get healthcare," Liston said. dispatch.com/story/news/stat…

In Oct 2024 I rec’d a $1000 unsolicited donation from Les Wexner. This past Dec, I donated those funds to a local org meeting the needs of youth impacted by/at risk for human trafficking. Receipts available: ohiosos.gov/campaign-finance… 1/4

People give hard earned money to my campaign because they believe that I will use the money to represent their values – to make decisions that can improve their lives and our state. I believe this is a sacred trust and I take it seriously. 3/4

Typically, the money I receive is spent on winning my election, sometimes I invest in others who will work for people in Ohio. In this case, I believed the money would best be spent supporting and protecting vulnerable youth. 4/4

In Springfield, Ohio, people are preparing in advance of a “large deportation” promised by the president. To all appearances, the city is two or three days from a federal ethnic cleansing, grounded in a hate campaign organized by the vice-president and American Nazis.

Today, Democrats offered an amendment that would fund SNAP, WIC, and TANF if federal funding lapses through the use of Ohio’s almost $4B “rainy day fund” to ensure that 1.4M Ohioans won’t go hungry during the federal government shutdown.
Every Republican voted against it.
