Elections and voting

William P. DeMora

This poorly drafted, poorly thought-out bill was crammed through committee at the last possible moment to appease the right-wing base, but it will hurt Ohioans of both political parties. It would be comical if it weren’t so harmful.

Energy and utility bills

William P. DeMora

I have more submetered customers than any other Senator in Ohio, and every time I hear from my constituents on this issue, they tell me how bad their experiences are! The Ohio Supreme Court already spoke, and they said that submetering companies are utilities and they have to provide all of the protections that other utilities have to. The legislature should not be creating different classes of customers simply because keeping everything equal may hurt the bottom line of submetering companies.

Local government

William P. DeMora

This capital budget does a fantastic job of distributing funds fairly across all counties and districts of the General Assembly. For that, I want to thank the sponsor, the committee chairman, and all of the staff who worked on this for months.
