's attacks on the Affordable Care Act: "We are in the middle of a pandemic. Taking away insurance from families -- the least of us -- is devastating, and it's irresponsible."
for hosting this round table today and giving us the opportunity to discuss just how much is at stake with this election. #VoteBiden#VoteLikeYourLifeDependsOnIt
Ahead of VP @Mike_Pence's trip to Ohio today, we're talking with suburban moms Mayor Kathy @CatazaroPerry, Councilwoman @MLawsonRowe, Councilwoman @ADanielsOHIO, Delaware Co. mom @MelanieJFarkas and Warren Co. mom Bree O'Day about the potential loss of the Affordable Care Act
How many of you have a loved one that struggles with a substance use disorder? Our President decided to attack Biden on his son's substance use disorder. That was the lowest of the low. Biden's response is the moment for me that will stand out beyond the rest. #EndTheStigma
.@realDonaldTrump do you not think Herman Cains death was a consequence of your rally? https://cnn.com/2020/07/30/politics/herman-cain-dies-coronavirus/index.html…
focus relentlessly on building our bench? Why do we insist there is not each as an "off year" election?
And why do we insist that our bench must reflect the diversity of our party, and our communities?
Lithopolis, that's why.
Read this great story.
This is why electing strong and diverse public servants at the local level MATTERS.
"The state legislature can’t do it, but by golly, Lithopolis can.
"Pass a resolution declaring racism a public-health crisis, that is."

Maybe every working journalist should go out and interview postal workers in their community to figure out what's going on right now. Here's a conversation I just had with a postal service worker a few minutes ago in Columbus, Ohio:
We are 99 days from the Nov 3 General Election!
Friendly reminder that if you are a resident of Lithopolis there is the Aug Special Election taking place right now.
The early vote center will be open 8a-7p all this week!
“I double dog dare Donald Trump to sit in a class of 39 sixth graders and breathe that air without any preparation for how we’re going to bring our kids back safely.”
National Education Association President Lily Eskelsen Garcia says schools can only reopen if done so safely.
How an elected official, let alone a DOCTOR, could be so ignorant of the health disparities that affect African-Americans is repugnant.
This is not about hand washing. It's about the racism rooted in our economic and health systems keeping Black communities down.
Insane: A GOP Ohio state senator is under fire this week after asking if “African Americans or the colored population” have been disproportionately affected by the novel coronavirus pandemic because they “do not wash their hands as well as other groups.” https://washingtonpost.com/nation/2020/06/11/black-coronavirus-ohio-gop/…
June 1-7 is National CPR and AED Awareness Week. More than 1,600 people suffer cardiac arrest every day in the U.S., so if you see someone collapse without warning, know your ‘Cardiac Arrest 1-2-3.’
Call 9-1-1.
Start #CPR.
Use an #AED.
Columbus Police use pepper spray on protesters on South High Street as Congresswomen Joyce Betty and Columbus City Council President Shannon Hardin try to intervene
We are taking a very cautious approach to childcare. There is no playbook for this, so we must learn as we go forward. We will make changes as we go forward. Therefore, we intend to fund a research project to study best practices for controlling the spread in child care settings.
If we acquit this president, a sham trial with no witnesses, it sets a precedent:
You can abuse your office and Congress will simply look the other way.

High quality #childcare sets kids up to thrive in school AND supports working families.
6 of the 10 most common jobs in Ohio pay so little that a parent pays over one-third of their income for infant care.

"To the many evangelicals who continue to support Mr. Trump in spite of his blackened moral record, we might say this: Remember who you are and whom you serve.”
If any endorsement still matters, it’s this.
Mr. President, let’s set politics aside. My husband earned all his accolades after a lifetime of service. I’m preparing for the first holiday season without the man I love. You brought me down in a way you can never imagine and your hurtful words just made my healing much harder.
Dayton Mayor Nan Whaley was asked when President Trump would be visiting following the deadly shooting.
"I've heard that he's coming Wednesday, but I've not gotten a call. And you know, he might be going to Toledo. I don't know." | http://bit.ly/2Zrz53H#10TV
This is Ohio State Representative Candice Keller, a shining example of today's @ohiogop.
She has a few opinions about mass shootings.
Let's make her famous.
