State Rep. Sedrick Denson (D- Cincinnati) issued a statement today following the Supreme Court’s decision in the North Carolina and Maryland partisan gerrymandering cases. 

“The decision handed down by the United States Supreme Court was a disappointing one.  Regardless, it is now the responsibility of my general assembly colleagues and I to ensure that every single Ohioan’s vote counts equally.  It’s our duty to guarantee that our redistricting process is fair, transparent, and most importantly, accurate.  I remain committed to this endeavor and I look forward to working to provide an unbiased system to my constituents.”

House Democratic lawmakers today largely voted against House Bill (HB) 6, legislation to bail out several energy corporations and all but eliminate energy efficiency and renewable energy standards in Ohio.

State Rep. Sedrick Denson (D-Bond Hill) took the oath of office today during the opening session of the 133^rd Ohio General Assembly at the Ohio Statehouse, officially beginning his first term as state lawmaker.

“It’s truly an honor to represent and be the voice for my community at the Statehouse,” said Rep. Denson. “With so many challenges holding working families back, it’s important that we put our differences aside and work together on legislation that puts people first and improves the lives of everyday Ohioans.”
