Representative Manning Appointed Vice Co-Chair of Ohio Legislative Children's Caucus
Today, Representative Gayle Manning (R-52) announced that she was appointed Vice Co-Chair of the Ohio Legislative Children’s Caucus.
“I am excited to have been selected to serve as vice co-chair of the Ohio Legislative Children’s Caucus alongside my colleague Senator Sen. Sykes,” said Representative Manning. “I look forward to beginning the work of promoting policies and working across the aisle and with the Governor’s office to ensure every child in Ohio has the chance to grow and thrive into adulthood.”
Representative Manning was selected by the Caucus to replace Representative Susan Manchester (R-78) as she takes on a leadership role in the House Republican Caucus.
“Children in Ohio are facing historically poor health outcomes. I look forward to working in a bi-partisan fashion to address critical issues that are facing children and families.”
Established in 2019, the Ohio Legislative Children’s Caucus is a bipartisan, bicameral caucus devoted to championing children’s issues in the state legislature through meaningful legislative, administrative, and budgetary action. To work towards its goal of ensuring every child is healthy, cared for, fed, educated, and nurtured, the caucus focuses on:
· Continuum of care for mothers and their children
· Early childhood education and child care
· K-12 school funding
· Social, emotional, mental, behavioral health and wellness for children and their families
