How to Talk About the House Budget

Every two years, Ohio’s Governor introduces and the legislature must pass a budget bill to set funding levels for every state agency and program. But the document is about far more than just money. The legislation is loaded with policy and law changes that can meaningfully impact people all across the state. In our effort to empower and enlist constituents from across the state to watch the budget, and speak out to your representatives about programs and services that are vital for your family, friends and communities.
