Putting Ohio First: Carey’s Plan
Candidate positionFamilies across Northeast Ohio are being crushed by rising prices on groceries, gas, housing, utilities, and healthcare. Inflation isn’t an abstract economic statistic it’s a tax on working people that makes it harder to save, harder to raise a family, and harder to stay in the community you love. Washington’s reckless spending, overregulation, and energy policies have driven up costs and weakened household budgets.
