Representative Christine Cockley - District 6

COLUMBUS — Today, in an effort organized by the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME), State Rep. Christine Cockley (D-Columbus) and more than 800 state and local elected officials signed onto a bipartisan letter to oppose the budget bill, which would severely hurt Ohio and communities nationwide. The letter warns that significant cuts at the federal level and added administrative costs will cause massive budget shortfalls and put an impossible burden on states to meet. As a result, deeper cuts would have to be made at the state and local levels, hurting local economies and impacting every sector from health care to public safety.
