Cuts to SNAP, as laid out in the Republican tax bill, have now begun. Results are expected to be “catastrophic”…

Let this sink in…

A message for JD Vance and anyone else in this Administration that is pretending they care about the safety of our kids. They don’t. All they care about is the political approval and profits of the gun industry. And they show it every day.

Jen Miller, executive director of the Ohio League of Women Voters, said Ohio’s mail-in balloting “works well and is worth preserving.” “It helps senior citizens, active duty military, students, those working abroad,” Miller said. “Taking away absentee ballots would disenfranchise those people. by Howard Wilkinson wvxu.org/politics/2025-…

@IsTimGrady @RachelCoyleOhio @VivekGRamaswamy Thank you.

@VarwigForTPS @RachelCoyleOhio @VivekGRamaswamy That was Omar Tarazi, I believe.

My entire speech was actually about improving public education in our state. We’ll post the full speech, I welcome your feedback on our proposals for improving academic performance.

@IsTimGrady @RachelCoyleOhio @VivekGRamaswamy May I ask which panelist?

@RachelCoyleOhio @VivekGRamaswamy Aside from one panelist advocating abolishing school boards for cities that disagree with their policies, this was just a regular, uneventful political rally for a half empty room. Irony of AFP complaining about Citizens United though. That was funny.

@DavidThomasOH @VivekGRamaswamy @AfpOhio Ohio now spends $1.2 BILLION to subsidize private schools. True school choice is found within public schools. #CareerTechEd #InvestInPublicEducation #vouchershurtohio

"I'm in favor of what actually works to elevate the standards of education to our kids. That leaves the accounting argument we're currently debating of more vs. less funding and looks at what helps kids," @VivekGRamaswamy at the @AfpOhio Future of Education Panel.

"@VivekGRamaswamy either forgot to invite anyone from public education -- forgot 90% of #Ohio kids -- or he purposefully chose not to include public ed in this event, because he doesn't see it as part of Ohio's future. Either way, it's unacceptable." --@RachelCoyleOhio

This is one of the most misinformed takes on public education that I’ve read and I read a lot. The public educational system in Ohio serves as the centerpiece to unify local communities. It takes money to do that & Ohio gives more on average to private school kids than public

The current number of Ohio Public School districts that are part of the Voucher lawsuit in our state: 311 out 611. If your district isn’t protecting your tax payer funds I’d encourage you to ask your local board of education, “why not?”

📢 We’re excited to welcome Thomas L. Hosler as our next CEO, starting Sept. 1. With 25 years of district leadership & a record of innovation, Tom will help advance our mission for Ohio's public schools. Learn more 👉 bit.ly/47tW2Jl. #EdLeadership #OhioEducation #K12

Oakdale wants to thank the Toledo Refining Company for doing Rock the Block and a community day for East Toledo! I enjoyed my time with Rufty, Erica, and support cast. You make a difference! #serving05ers
