Issues
Bad public policy creates barriers that prevent people from achieving their version of the American Dream. That’s why Americans for Prosperity-Ohio is committed to advocating for solutions within our Buckeye Blueprint that will empower everyone to overcome these barriers, so they too can contribute and succeed.
Remove: Barriers to Economic Opportunity for All
Over the past 20+ years Ohio has removed tax brackets and lowered rates. Top 10 states, on the other hand, aren’t incremental, and we shouldn’t be either. Prioritizing the abolition of our state income tax over the next five years should be a top goal for elected officials. It’s an effective campaign message as well as sound public policy. It’s also past time to revisit forced unionization and guarantee that workers, not out-of-touch union executives, are in charge.

Advance Educational Opportunities for Everyone
Passage of universal Education Savings Accounts, or even simply making the application process for current voucher/scholarship programs more straightforward, would put more parents in a better position to make the best choices for their kids. Hoosier & Mountaineer families are feeling the benefit of bold reform recently while Buckeye families seeking opportunity are currently under attack in our courts.

Drive Personal Options in Healthcare
Ohio has made positive advances during the times of COVID on access to care, most notably with recently passed telemedicine reforms in House Bill 122. Though, a larger more substantive move that both empowers medical professionals and protects patients can be achieved by way of scope of practice reforms which have languished in the halls of the State House for years.
Three core principles underlie the Personal Option in health care: Affordability | Access | Quality
Through a focus on these three principles, we can advance transformational public policy solutions that will Empower Medical Professionals and Protect Patients. While ensuring that safety nets are protected for the most vulnerable.
