Today is Earth Day! So think about how the Columbus City Council sold out an under-served community, forcing them to give up their promised park, so that billionaires can build a sports stadium. In 2027 if you can find a decent candidate for Mayor that isn't Hardin or Ginther, support them.

Dear friends! I was made aware that, at least since Saturday, our campaign website was being buggy! If you were interested in checking out the Issue tab, it kept redirecting to the homepage. That has been fixed, please browse the fixed www.bakerforprogress.com

So nobody in the Ohio GOP is bothered Creech wants to co-sponsored a bill to put cameras in daycares?
Maybe someone should have told him to sit that one out, and if you don't know why: search Rodney Creech 2023 accusations

So once again, with HB249, we have seen that what the Ohio GOP is focused on...more than affordable child care, more than tackling rising utility costs, more food deserts...is a hate bill that will target vulnerable people

Are you aware the Ohio spent nearly double the school budget on charter and private schools compared to public school? That's a blatant attack on public education. So why has the senate been more focused on attacking voting rights than fighting this injustice?

Watched "The Pelican Brief." Came out in 1993 and the plot is chasing down a scandal the President committed around bribery and DOJ obstruction (some assassination in there too.)
Crazy how that used to feel like a things that could happen.
Plus, they say the Pres is too old to be pres. He was 63.

Did you know that the Ohio Constitution still bans same-sex marriage? Or that LGBTQ+ Ohioans aren’t fully protected from discrimination? It’s time to make major progress on these issues, and I plan to do just that.

I am proud to stand up for libraries as a bedrock of our communities. Too often, the economic benefits are overlooked.

We've come to the last day of petition signing. I want to thank the many people who opened their doors and showed genuine excitement in the campaign. Many people are saying what we've all been feeling: more needs to be done. And that is what I'm fighting for.
Again, thanks to all who have helped!
