Mike DeWine on Jobs

Former Republican Sr Senator (OH, 1995-2007)

 


State can create job opportunities for disabled

Even though the economy is going well, many Ohioans still struggle. We have a shocking number of our fellow citizens with disabilities who are unemployed or grossly underemployed. This is wrong. And so, we are going to invest more resources into initiatives that increase employment opportunities for people with disabilities. We are going to help businesses in Ohio through enhanced opportunity zones.

Let states decide on minimum wage

Q: Raise the minimum wage?

Richard Cordray (D): Yes. Fight to raise Ohio minimum wage to $15 per hour by 2025. Will go to voters if needed.

Mike DeWine (R): Undecided. Says he's "`open to taking a look at' whether the question should go to voters." As US Senator increased to $7.25 when coupled with increased cap on estate tax. As Attorney General opposed Ohio cities' enacting minimum wage higher than the state's.
