The All of Us Block Party is here.

This event was born from a vision of community. A space where neighbors gather, families connect with resources, and joy is felt in every smile and every word of encouragement.

The Block Party shows what happens when we stand together with one purpose: to build a stronger, healthier, and more connected community. It reflects our belief that every person deserves access to opportunity, support, and celebration.

So come out today, bring your family, bring your friends, and let’s celebrate what makes us powerful: an Ohio for all of us.

Fresh look, same mission.

We’ve been putting in the work—10 bills introduced, 15 more to go. Every piece of legislation is a step toward progress, and we’re just getting started. ✊🏾

Love is Revolutionary.

Honored to serve as 2025 Gay S. Steele Keynote Speaker for the MLK Day of Learning.

Today isn’t just another date on the calendar—it’s a call to reflection, introspection, and action.

MLK Day holds up a mirror, asking us: Are we truly honoring Dr. King’s legacy or just reciting his words? Are we moving toward the Promised Land he envisioned, or have we grown comfortable in complacency? Are we living out our dreams, or leaving them unfulfilled on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial?

Dr. King once said, “All we say to America is, ‘Be true to what you said on paper.’” Yet in 2025, so many promises remain unfulfilled.

It’s time to move beyond dreaming and commit ourselves to action—for justice, for equity, for our own liberation.

That’s what I call revolutionary love.
