Priorities

Practical leadership. Real solutions.

Ohio families deserve leadership that focuses on real issues — fairness, opportunity, and the everyday challenges people face. These priorities reflect a commitment to practical solutions that strengthen communities and create real opportunity.

Expungement Expansion

Everyone deserves a second chance. Too many Ohioans are held back by past mistakes that no longer reflect who they are today. Expanding expungement eligibility will allow more people to access jobs, housing, and education opportunities — strengthening families, reducing recidivism, and building safer communities across Ohio.

Equal Parental Rights

Children thrive when both parents are involved. Don supports fair and balanced custody policies that prioritize the best interests of the child while ensuring both parents are treated equally under the law. Encouraging shared responsibility helps create stability, improves outcomes for children and strengthens Ohio families.

Kitchen Table Economics

Ohio families are feeling the pressure of rising costs. From groceries to housing, everyday expenses continue to climb. Don is focused on practical solutions that support small businesses, promote job growth, and put more money back in the pockets of working families while strengthening local economies across Ohio.
