Medicaid

The most vulnerable Ohioans continue to bear the brunt of budget cuts to much-needed services like healthcare. We work hard to ensure that low-income Ohioans have access to quality, affordable healthcare by making sure they have a seat at the table in the budget legislation process.

 

Kinship Care

Approximately 227,862 children in Ohio are in kinship care. Unfortunately, these families receive less money from the state budget than families participating in the foster care program. We continue to work towards a more equitable distribution of funds so that all children can receive the resources they need to thrive.

Transportation

Cuts to funding of public transit continue to be a burden on many Ohioans, who rely on it for work, school, and everyday travel. Making sure there is reliable, accessible and affordable public transit in our communities is an integral part of making them stronger.
