At 44th in nation for job creation, JobsOhio far from adequate

Today, Gov. Kasich, Speaker Batchelder and President Faber spoke to members of the business community during a year-in-review speech at the Ohio Chamber of Commerce. State Rep. Matt Lundy (D-Elyria) released the following statement in response to today’s speech:

“It is outrageous that Governor Kasich would oversell JobsOhio when we’re 44th in the nation for job creation over the last year. Ohio’s job growth has trailed the national rate for the past 12 months and the secrecy at JobsOhio has failed to produce any of the promised results. We need to restore accountability in state government and put working and middle class families first to get our economy going again.”
