Ohio's Democratic Party has a new leader. Ohio Statehouse Scoop Host Jo Ingles talks with Kathleen Clyde about how she plans to win back voters who used to be Democrats. The Republican-dominated Ohio Senate has passed its version of the budget. Ohio Public Media's Statehouse News Bureau Chief Karen Kasler and Reporter Sarah Donaldson join Jo to discuss the plan passed by senators. Plus, while President Donald Trump celebrated his birthday with a U.S. Army military parade in Washington, D.C., Ohioans protested in many cities throughout Ohio.

On this week's episode of The Narrative—recorded live at Center for Christian Virtue's (CCV) 2025 Columbus Gala—US Senators Bernie Moreno and Jon Husted join CCV President Aaron Baer on stage for a candid conversation about the future of Ohio, the importance of faith and family, and what it means to lead with conviction in challenging times. Before the Senators take the stage, Aaron is joined by CCV Policy Director David Mahan and Communications Director Mike Andrews to dive into this week's latest news: ⚖️ The Ohio Senate passed the state budget with the notable exclusion of iGaming. The budget includes legislation that strengthens families, protects children, and restores common sense to public policy in Ohio.

The third version of the state budget is out, and it proposes cutting taxes for any Ohioan making more than $100,000 a year. The State Senate would do that by flattening the state income tax.

Donald Trump has the lowest 100-day job approval rating of any president in the past 80 years, with public pushback on many of his policies and extensive economic discontent, including broad fears of a recession. The concept of the "First 100 Days" refers to the early period of a U.S. president's new term, typically seen as a symbolic window to set the tone, push key policies and demonstrate leadership. It represents a kind of political version of a first impression. In the United States, no one talked that much about the importance of a president's first 100 days—until Franklin D. Roosevelt took office in 1933. He took swift action to calm the nation's crippling financial panic (cue the Emergency Banking Act and the “fireside chats” that became Roosevelt's signature) and began rolling out the programs that made up his New Deal, including 15 major pieces of legislation in the first 100 days. FDR's extraordinary productivity translated into enormous popularity, and he set a first 100-day standard against which all future U.S. presidents would (perhaps unfairly) be measured.We talk with Chuck Cordak, an ardent MAGA supporter, about why he thinks Trump's first 100 days have been successul, and, of course, we offer our view. Spoiler alert: Chuck is positively impressed; we're not.What seems to matter to MAGA followers, like Chuck, is the volume of activity that surrounds the Trump administration. The question is, what does all that activity do for the good of the country?Chuck is a father of six, five who serve in the military. He has been deeply involved with Ohio, Illinois GOP politics for over 40 years. A former ROTC Midshipman at Ohio State University, Chuck is a native Ohioan and says he was raised as a Truman Kenndy Democrat with conservative Catholic education and traditional values. He has worked all over the Midwest, as well as the Northeast. Chuck resides in Columbus and is currently working on releasing a thought buster book. Chuck is also a segment contributor for Sirius XM and TNT Radio and writes for AFNN.us.So what does it take for a MAGA faithful to offer any criticism of Trump? Listen and find out.

Optimal Health Series Is Ohio headed for a crisis in health coverage, especially for mental health and addiction services? More than a decade ago, Ohio's Medicaid expansion was a game changer, extending coverage to over 700,000 Ohioans and providing a lifeline to thousands of Ohioans in need of mental health and addiction treatment services. Expansion worked: uninsured rates dropped, medical debt decreased, health improved, and emergency room visits went down. In just four years, 630,000 Ohioans received treatment for mental illness or substance use disorder, a victory in the fight against opioid addiction. In 2024, forty percent of adults covered by expansion had a primary mental health and/or substance use disorder diagnosis. These gains may now be in jeopardy: Governor DeWine's new proposed biennial budget includes a so-called “kill-switch” provision that would automatically end mental health and addiction services provided through the expansion if federal Medicaid funding is reduced. With key leaders and policy experts, we'll unpack the impact Medicaid has had on health outcomes in Ohio and the consequences facing patients in recovery if the state's landmark care expansion is abandoned. Featuring: Oyauma Garrison, President & CEO, Maryhaven, Inc. Rachelle Martin; Executive Director, National Alliance on Mental Illness of Franklin County Amy Bush Stevens, Amy Bush Stevens Consulting, LLC, Consultant to the Health Policy Institute of Ohio The host is Greg Moody, Director of Professional Development, The John Glenn College of Public Affairs, The Ohio State University The presenting sponsors of the CMC Optimal Health Series are Nationwide Children's Hospital, OhioHealth, and The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center. This forum was sponsored by Maryhaven. The presenting sponsor of the CMC livestream was The Center for Human Kindness at the Columbus Foundation. CMC's livestream partner was The Columbus Dispatch. This forum was also supported by The Ellis. This forum was recorded before a live audience at The Ellis in Columbus' historic Italian Village on June 4, 2025.  

In 1974, Ohio's prison population was 8,400 Ohioan. By 2011, the number grew to 51,000. Are we any safer as a result? Do all these inmates need to remain behind bars? Are we just locking up people without adequate attention being paid to things like education, drug treatment, mental health treatment and cognitive therapy? Our guest, Gary Mohr, former Director of the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction, wanted to know, and so he called on the late Edward Latessa, PhD, of the University of Cincinnati's Department of Criminal Justice to find out. Latessa spent three years visiting every prison in Ohio, collecting data and examining every program prisons offered to inmates. He concluded that an inmate's pursuit of a GED, drug treatment and other self-help programs resulted in a statistically significant difference in terms of violence and recidivism. After Latessa completed his research, the Ohio legislature delved into revising the criminal code and created a panel of 23 individuals, consisting of legislators, defense attorneys, prosecutors and corrections staff. After a year and a half, several recommendations were made, all of which were endorsed by a legislative committee, and then—nothing. No legislation was introduced. If Ohio's prison population has increased from 8,400 to 51,000, while the general population has remained fairly stable, that means, Mohr explains, there's either a staggering increase in crime, or we're not doing what we need to do to reduce criminality and the amount of time people spend in prison, or some combination.Crime didn't increase significantly during Mohr's tenure, but the criminal code increased, and sentencing changed. Now we have more mandatory sentencing, which is a disincentive for inmates to engage in those programs that Latessa proved were beneficial in reducing the prison population. Add to this that politically it's popular to be tough on crime. Sentencing offenders to long jail time is more popular than pushing for rehabilitation. Listen to the conversation.

Here's the heart of this episode in a nutshell:This “Looking Forward Our Way” episode is all about helping Ohioans make sense of their utility bills and understand their rights as utility customers. We sit down with Kathryn Metz from the Ohio Consumers' Counsel (OCC)—basically the state's watchdog and advocate for regular folks when it comes to utilities like electricity, gas, water, and even landline phones.Why should anyone care? Because utilities are something we all have to deal with, and lately, the costs and choices just keep getting more complicated (and expensive). The OCC isn't just there for emergencies—they're fighting every day so you don't get overcharged, educating you about your options (like how to shop for energy and avoid sneaky contracts), and making sure vulnerable Ohioans (seniors, people with tight budgets) can get help paying bills when they're struggling. They even break down confusing bills and warn about energy scams that pop up every time prices go up.The episode also dishes on hot topics like the fallout from the House Bill 6 scandal (where Ohio residents ended up footing the bill for a shady energy bailout), the crazy impact of new data centers using tons of electricity, and issues with submetered utilities that can make your bills skyrocket without many protections.Bottom line: If you pay for utilities in Ohio, this is stuff you need to know so you can protect your wallet, avoid scams, and make smart choices about your energy. The OCC is there to help, but step one is staying informed—and that's exactly what this episode is all about. If you like this episode, please let us know. We appreciate the feed back, and your support of offset costs of producing the podcast!Here are three key takeaways for every Ohioan:OCC Is Your Advocate: The OCC was established in 1976 to serve as an independent voice for Ohio's residential utility consumers, helping save billions by holding utility companies accountable and ensuring fair pricing.Know Your Options—And Your Bill: Ohioans can shop for energy suppliers, but staying with your utility's standard offer is often the most cost-effective choice. Always read your bill closely—delivery and supply charges are different, and misinformation or scams can lead to costly mistakes.Beware of Scammers & Protect Your Info: Never share your utility account number freely—it should be as protected as your Social Security number. Beware of aggressive door-to-door marketers and unintended contract changes. You can request to be put on a utility "Do Not Contact" list for extra protection.Key Moments00:00 Journey from Humanitarian Aid to Teaching03:57 Ohio Utility Consumer Advocacy Agency07:53 Ohio Summer Cooling Assistance Program11:52 AEP Rate Increase Alternatives15:19 "Compare Ohio Energy Suppliers Easily"19:04 Traveling Speakers Share Critical Info21:29 Ohio's Costly Coal Plant Subsidies24:57 Ohio Data Centers Settlement Decision27:30 Beware of Energy Market Scams30:03 Protect Your Utility Account Number33:24 Utility Scams and Submetering Issues36:37 Future Uncertainty for LIHEAP Funding39:07 Ohio Energy Aggregation Rate ChangesWe would love to hear from you.Give us your feedback, or suggest a topic, by leaving us a voice message.Email us at hello@lookingforwardourway.com.Find us on

Originally expanded in 2014 under the Kasich administration, Ohio is one of 41 states, including the District of Columbia, that has implemented Medicaid expansion under the Affordable Care Act. However, the addition of trigger language into the current state budget bill would allow Ohio to disenroll from Medicaid expansion if federal assistance for the program drops below 90%. The trigger language comes as congressional Republicans in D.C. consider cutting the federal match for Medicaid expansion.rnrnFor Ohio, it's a move that could strip healthcare access from over 770,000 Ohioans; including about 362,000 in rural Ohio counties.rnrnAdvocates in health equity, maternal and infant vitality, mental health, and more have sounded the alarm on what it means to return to an era before Medicaid expansion. A rollback would also disproportionately impact rural communities and their hospitals, adding to already staggering health disparities.rnrnFeaturing:rnDomonic HopsonrnPresident and CEO, Neighborhood Family PracticernrnBeejadi Mukunda, MDrnVP & Market Chief Medical Officer, Ohio, CareSourcernrnAmy Rohling McGeernPresident, Health Policy Institute of OhiornrnModeratorrnEmily CampbellrnPresident & CEO, The Center for Community Solutions

A grassroots effort to eliminate property taxes in Ohio received the green light this week to begin gathering signatures for the proposed ballot measure. Citizens for Property Tax Reform must gather 443,000 valid signatures from 44 of Ohio's 88 by July 2 to qualify for the November ballot. Property taxes and relief have been a major concern for Ohioans as valuations have risen steeply for many over the last few years.
