Representative Erika White - District 41

COLUMBUS – State Rep. Erika White (D-Springfield Township) today voted “NO” on the vote to override a school district property tax levy restriction provision vetoed in House Bill 96 (the state operating budget). Line-item 66 would eliminate several types of levies, limiting the choices voters have in how to support their schools and local governments, and would not provide real property tax relief to Ohioans. Real property tax relief is one of the most pressing needs for everyday Ohioans. House Democrats are ready and willing to work together to get that done.

COLUMBUS – State Rep. Erika White (D-Springfield Township) today criticized the Republican state operating budget, signed by Governor Mike DeWine, that prioritizes tax breaks for the wealthy and corporate giveaways over funding for schools, affordable communities, and essential healthcare services. Despite a few helpful line-item vetoes, the budget still overwhelmingly reflects out-of-touch priorities that leave everyday Ohioans behind.

COLUMBUS – State Rep. Erika White (D-Springfield Township) Wednesday voted “NO” on House Bill (HB) 96, the Republican-crafted state operating budget, citing the devastating impact of drastic budget cuts on vital services for working people.  This report highlights the GOP's alarming failure to adequately invest in children, public education, healthcare, and essential community services. At the same time, it highlights the troubling trend of diverting billions of taxpayer dollars to enrich wealthy and well-connected Ohioans, thereby exacerbating inequality and undermining the financial security of millions of Ohio workers for generations to come.
