Very few of these Haitians will voluntarily go back to Haiti. If they have to leave, they'll go someplace else.

I’ve signed four budgets, and (in) every one of the budgets we have reduced the income tax.

We need some immigrants to come in here.

They've filled jobs, repaired homes, paid taxes, started businesses and supported their families.

But the administration has ended their Temporary Protected Status, a move I have vocally opposed.

Restricting legal immigration is not a good idea.

If you look at the growth in the state of Ohio in the last 10 years and that continued this last year, 60% of our growth in the state has come from immigrants.

In Springfield, Ohio, Haitian nationals have played a major role in the city's economic comeback.

This is not something that will end tonight.

I urge residents to prepare for additional severe storms and flooding in the coming days.

the backlash against tax breaks offered to data centers and other priority businesses prompted Republican Gov. Mike DeWine to pause the state's tax exemptions

“However,” he added, “the submetering model, itself, is fundamentally flawed.”

“While this bill does contain some consumer protections,” he said, “they are not as robust as those afforded to customers of Ohio’s electric utilities.”

House Bill 472 would not discourage fraud, would not add any real security, and would create an additional and significant burden for Ohioans who vote by mail.
