Hi,

I just looked back at all of the things Mike DeWine did in his first year in office, and despite all you hear about how "moderate" he is -- DeWine's agenda has been a dream come true for right-wing extremists.

Here's just a sampling of DeWine's "accomplishments":

• Signed into law one of the nation's most restrictive abortion bans

• Millions in funding for fake health clinics that shame and lie to women

• Nothing done to stop the epidemic of gun violence and a broken promise to gun safety advocates after Dayton

• Millions of dollars taken out of public schools to fund private school vouchers

• New rules designed to kick Ohioans off their Medicaid health coverage

On top of all that -- Ohio has lost more than 4,000 jobs since DeWine took office in January.

DeWine might have the right-wing special interests on his side, but we have grassroots supporters like you. Every dollar that you chip in helps us fight back against DeWine's agenda -- and with one extreme bill after another this year, we need all hands on deck.

Throughout DeWine's first year in office, Ohioans have been struggling -- but instead of fighting for reforms and investments to lift up our communities, Mike DeWine and the Ohio GOP have spent most of their time doing the bidding of right-wing extremists and special interest groups.

I can only hope that in 2020, Gov. Mike DeWine will spend more energy lifting jobs and wages for everyday Ohioans and far less doing the bidding of right-wing special interests -- but if not, we need to be ready to fight back.
