AI data centers in Ohio

What is your view on AI data centers in Ohio?

Data center development must be heavily regulated to protect the environment and property value of those living near a potential site. Property tax abatements and sales tax exemptions need to be re-examined so townships and municipalities are not taken advantage of financially. Data center development must be transparent and public officials should work to protect their constituents, not the developers.

Yes, strongly

Never-ending Wars

Israel and its recent actions

What are your views on Israel and its recent actions?

Israel must end its attacks on Palestinians and their proxies. It will be difficult to come to an agreement with the current leadership in Israel, but something needs to be done now to end the destruction.
