I was happy to join my colleagues, State Representative Christine Cockley Darnell Brewer and Rep. Dontavius L. Jarrells during a town hall this week, to speak out about the dangers of gun violence and how we can work on preventing these acts of violence from occurring.

Last week, I hosted a gun violence prevention town hall. Gun violence is a crisis affecting every part of Ohio. In my own community, I see the pain and fear it creates far too often. Our communities deserve to feel safe and are calling for common-sense solutions.

We should not have to live like this. No one should have to fear for their life while attending a High School football game. The Republican majority in the Statehouse has prioritized the gun lobby, rather than the safety and security of our neighborhoods. We must do better.

To my friends & neighbors: I’m sick & tired of gun violence. West High just celebrated community w/ a pep rally & fundraiser. Last night, their football game was cut short by shots fired nearby. Not one more game. Not one more student. Not one more life. House GOP must act.

Gun violence cannot be allowed to define our communities… When gunfire pierces our streets, it overshadows everything else. It robs us of joy, safety, and connection. This is not inevitable. It is a policy choice.

Ohio Republicans are trying to help Trump keep the Epstein Files sealed by gerrymandering maps. Today, we're releasing a limited edition "Pass Fair Maps & Release the Epstein List" t-shirt. You can get your shirt here: secure.actblue.com/donate/passfai…

It’s an honor to earn the support of such respected leaders who continue to put our state first. I look forward to working alongside them to address rising costs, strengthen our public schools, and build the Ohio we know is possible.

Ohioans deserve fair representation. The Joint Redistricting Commission is holding its first hearing now! Call your legislators and demand fair maps for ALL of us. You can watch the meeting live using the link below ⬇️
