Since Mike DeWine took office in January, he has signed one unconstitutional abortion ban and zero bills to deal with gun violence, pushed forward with punishing and self-defeating Medicaid work requirements, diverted millions of dollars from public schools to private school vouchers and stood by as more than 4,000 jobs have left Ohio.
"All the rhetoric in the world can't change the sad reality that 2019 is on track to be the first year since 2009 -- the height of the Great Recession -- that Ohio has lost jobs," said Ohio Democratic Party Chairman David Pepper. "As Ohio struggles economically, rather than pursuing reforms and investments to lift Ohio's flagging economy, Mike DeWine and the Ohio GOP have dedicated most of their energies to doing the bidding of right-wing extremists and special-interest groups."
