Please explain what your two main legislative priorities will be if elected. Please explain how you would obtain any additional government funding needed to implement these priorities.
- The two main legislative priorites I have are education and agriculture.
A school funding program needs to be developed to adequately fund low income systems to help them reach the state approved level per pupil. Different sources of state income could be used including the rainy day fund.
Agriculture Ohio's leading industry, needs to be able to produce products in new and cheaper fashions, while still being kind to it's neighbors and the enviornment.
