People will call Mike DeWine a reasonable Republican but there is no such creature. There are more vampires than Republicans who will do the right thing

Ohio friends, be sure to let Gov Mike DeWine and Ohio Republicans know that they are responsible for 30,000 Ohio children losing their healthcare coverage. Look at their voting records as they pour more than a BILLION dollars into school vouchers while children go without healthcare insurance.

"Since 2022, 30,000 #Ohio children have lost health insurance because of cost concerns, while the state has provided billions to the wealthy in tax cuts and billions to private schools"

This is Ohio with a Republican supermajority. Your kids deserve so much better.

We stand ready to support their return home so they are best positioned for helping Texans respond to any natural disasters.

Abbott activates emergency resources ahead of growing wildfire threat, flood risk in Texas

With expected growing wildfire danger across Texas and the potential for a flood risk this weekend, Gov. Greg Abbott is activating more state emergency response resources Friday.
