“I am honored to accept this special committee appointment. The issues facing Ohio’s education system have always been among my top priorities, both in my professional career and as an elected official. I look forward to working with my fellow committee members to examine current education issues, and I’m confident we can provide the public and our colleagues in the General Assembly good advice on any education issue we tackle.”
