Where they stand
Education
we need to give the younger generation a path forward in order to obtain the skills needed to succeed in life. This path can take shape through traditional college, trade school, apprenticeships, or better opportunities to enter the workforce.

Elections and voting
Ever since the U.S. Supreme Court ruling called Citizens United vs. Federal Election Commission, corporations and other outside groups have been allowed to spend unlimited money on elections. This opened the door for Super PACs (political action committees) that can not only spend these unlimited amounts, but hide the original source of the dollars ( Dark Money) . The amount of CORRUPTION fueled by this dark money has increased to record levels here in Ohio, as well as, non-responsive representation.

Families and child care
To add fuel to the fire, childcare costs have gone through the roof. No wonder the younger generation just can't get ahead.
Source: Issues
Housing
Recent studies have shown that in order to afford a two bedroom apartment rent, an individual needs to earn approximately $24.50/hour in a full time job. Additionally, nationwide, the average age of first time home buyers is age 41!

Why they are running
I’m running because I believe people in this area have been ignored for too long. And they need a choice for change
