1. How would you implement your top priority?

Answer from Randy J. O'Hara:

Education: by working with school teachers, other legislators and the governor to make it a real priority. I would increase funding where needed, allow for vouchers and hold educators responsible for their students education.

Answer from Catherine L. Barrett:

Quality education is the key to solving many of our problems. The State of Ohio is responsible for providing an appropriate high quality education for all students that allows them to become fully functioning. The State of Ohio needs to provide full and equitable funding of public education. I have a House Bill would do that by reducing the size of government and lowering taxes by increasing governmental effectiveness.
