The grant program will help to expand existing high preforming workforce programs that are helping residents find a better paying career. We are aiming to serve at least 500 residents over the next two years.

We are also having @OhioState Center on Education and Training for Employment study how we spend these grants and their impact on residents. This will help us identity how we can better support our neighbors in finding a better career to support their families.

Frances Perkins was a trailblazer who revolutionized workers' rights– securing Social Security, the minimum wage, and banning child labor.
We're calling for a national monument to honor her legacy. It’s time she gets the recognition she deserves.

Please join @c_cockley, the Central Ohio Labor Council and myself tonight for an easy way to help support @SherrodBrown and help educate voters on #YesOn1 to end gerrymandering in Ohio.

Hope y’all had a great Labor Day. @PolicyMattersOH celebrated by releasing our annual State of Working Ohio report. Come along for some highlights & a link to @HannahHalbert’s report.
To absolutely no one’s surprise… corporate price gouging is the biggest driver of inflation.
