“As a result of systemic state underfunding of our public schools, several rounds of re-appraisals, market forces, and our corrupt Statehouse giving tax breaks to the wealthy, property taxes have drastically spiked for Ohioans across the state in recent years. Tax delinquencies have skyrocketed, and too many seniors and Ohioans on fixed incomes have been forced out of their homes.

Ohioans need relief. That’s why as governor, I will:

Expand the Homestead Exemption to Help Ohio’s Seniors

As governor, I will expand the Homestead Exemption so more of Ohio’s seniors are eligible for property tax relief.
I will raise the cap on the household income eligibility of Ohio’s seniors to $50,000, which will ease the burden for an additional 55,000 homeowners.
Introduce a Property Tax Spike Rebate

My administration will introduce a property tax spike rebate for Ohio homeowners struggling with high property tax increases.
Homeowners with household incomes below $132,000 who pay property taxes on homes valued at or below $350,000 would be eligible for a rebate of up to $1,000 when their property tax bill has increased more than 4% over the prior year.
This rebate will help Ohio’s working families and seniors who live in communities with the highest home value appreciation rates.”

Dr. Amy Acton is a huge supporter of Ohio’s Union Families. Why? Because she’s part of one!

Because of her proposed policies and meaningful actions, Unions of all types have endorsed her, including the UMWA!

“Unlike my opponent, I’m not afraid to say the word “union.” I am a proud member of a union family – my grandfather was a union steelworker in Youngstown, and my husband is a proud 43-year public school teacher.

I’ve walked the picket line with UAW members in Cincinnati and Teamsters in Dublin. I am the only pro-labor candidate in this race – my opponent wants to eliminate teacher’s unions and called to end federal worker unions.

As governor, I will protect our unions and ensure that Ohio never becomes a right-to-work state. I will always have working families’ backs and fight to keep Ohio’s unions strong.”

On September 21, Dr. Amy Acton released the following statement calling for an emergency Ohio gas tax holiday:

“I am calling for an emergency gas tax holiday to offer Ohio’s working families some relief. We are facing an affordability crisis in Ohio, from rising grocery bills to skyrocketing prescription drug costs. The average price for a gallon of gas in Ohio today is $4.52, and diesel is even higher, ringing in at $6.77. Ohioans are hurting. I’m hearing stories of folks who are unable to get to work or go to the doctor because they can’t afford to fill up their tank,” said Dr. Amy Acton. “Ohioans are the hardest working people I know, and we can offer Ohioans some temporary relief without compromising on investing in our infrastructure. My out of touch billionaire opponent is telling us that rising costs are just a ‘buzzword’, but Ohioans can always count on me to lower costs and put our families first.”

ACT ON EDUCATION! Read Dr. Acton’s plan to improve Public Education here!

“Every kid in Ohio deserves access to a free, high quality public education.

Ohio invented public schools! But decades of privatization schemes and special interest giveaways have led to worse outcomes for our kids.

As Governor, I will put working families first by restoring public school funding to a constitutional level and implement the bipartisan Fair School Funding Plan.”

Corruption in Ohio is enriching a few elites while working people foot the bill. Amy Acton intends to enact reforms to make sure government works for the people again.

"It is time to put the needs of working families over the wants of billionaires, corporations and special interests. As governor, I will crack down on the corruption that raises our costs — requiring transparency, fighting to end pay-to-play schemes, and shining a light on bidding, contracting, and appointment processes to ensure decisions are made on behalf of our taxpayers. Ohioans deserve a governor who will put them first, not corporations and special interests."

Use the link in the comments to learn more about the anti-corruption Executive Orders Dr. Acton will enact, to restore ethics to Ohio’s government and tackle the cost of corruption in our state.
