    Doctors must be able to prescribe, pharmacists to dispense, and patients to take already-approved drugs for this novel use against a novel enemy.

    A message of hope and faith this Easter

    Until His last breath, Jesus continually placed His life into the secure, unchanging, ever-loving Hands of His Father. In this current crisis, you must do the same. Your spiritual survival depends on you placing all your anxieties, fears and worries into the hands of your Father. Like Jesus, you must keep faith that your Father will bring victory at the moment when all seems lost.

    My father explained that Pa Barney had been an old man when he sat down to write his recollections, but that Pa Barney had been no more than a teenager in 1861 when he first enlisted in Ohio’s 101 Volunteer Infantry Division.

    Voinovich was partly accurate. Vouchers did sweep Ohio, but not because vouchers are so good. There is not one shred of evidence that vouchers improve educational opportunities. But 25 years later, vouchers are a calamity in Ohio.

  • Law You Can Use: Utilities in the time of COVID-19

    Since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic, laws, rules and policies governing public utilities have been in a state of constant change. Utility laws affect almost all Ohioans and those facing financial hardship will benefit from staying up to date on recent changes and assistance opportunities.

    Although the Cleveland Scholarship program didn’t start until 1996, a lot of groundwork and backroom deals seemed to be necessary to nudge the Ohio Legislature to open the door which would eventually be a floodgate.

    As the novel coronavirus, or COVID-19, has spread across our world, our communities have confronted this unprecedented challenge head-on. In the face of adversity, we are seeing innovation and compassion from those working hard to contribute to the solution – the American spirit at its best.

    End the shutdown; it’s time for resurrection

    Monday, April 6, 2020 11:10 AM
    For many millions of Christians, Easter is a time to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Others may celebrate the arrival of spring and the promise of new life. Whatever one’s beliefs, after several weeks of mandatory “stay-at-home” orders and the complete shutdown of the U.S. economy over the coronavirus, this self-destructive hysteria must end, and we must reclaim the freedom and liberty that has provided us so much opportunity as Americans.

  • The origin of the current voucher calamity in Ohio, Part II

    Since the late 1960s when the “fair bus bill” (student transportation to private schools at public expense), Ohio has been extremely generous in financial support of private schools. In fact, Ohio was first in the nation in support of private schools by the early 1990s when Gov. George Voinovich started his campaign for vouchers.
