I’m proud to have worked on House Bill 184 from day one—this law protects Ohio’s student-athletes by making sure their NIL deals are tied to their eligibility, so they can focus on their futures without unnecessary distractions. It’s a win for fairness and opportunity in college sports,” said Mathews.

House Bill 292 is about positioning Ohio, and America, for the next generation of global competition. Ohio can help lead a new era of American reindustrialization by building the defense and aerospace industries that our nation will depend on. By strengthening these industries, we can help ensure not only the United States, but also Ohio, remains the world’s preeminent economic and military power. Ohio helped build the Arsenal of Democracy; now we have the opportunity to build the arsenal of the future,” said Mathews.

I’m honored to have helped lead the effort behind Ohio’s historic PTSI law,” said Mathews. “Thanks to our work, tens of millions of dollars are now dedicated to mental health treatment for our firefighters, police, and EMS. This means real wages, real care, and real long-term support for those who put their lives on the line every day. It’s a victory for our first responders and their families.”
