OH-Gov: Connie Pillich (D) Calls For Transparency From John Kasich (R) On His No-Bid Contracts

Received this e-mail today from Connie Pillich’s (D. OH) gubernatorial campaign:

 

We’ve all heard the saying about the two things in life that are certain, death and taxes. But, as we approach Tax Day, how certain are we that our tax dollars are being spent appropriately?  

The Columbus Dispatch recently revealed that Governor John Kasich’s Department of Administrative Services has been funneling high dollar contracts to colleagues of department officials. And they've been doing it without allowing others to bid on these contracts.

Does that seem like Ohioans are getting the best deal for their dollar to you? It doesn’t to me.

Join me in demanding a full public accounting of what’s been happening in Gov. Kasich’s administration with no-bid contracts.

As a member of the Ohio Legislature, I fought to ensure every tax dollar was spent responsibly, with transparency, and on important services for Ohioans like providing quality public education, ensuring our roads and bridges are maintained, and making sure our seniors are taken care of after a lifetime of work.

But that’s not how the current state administration is spending our tax dollars. They’re trying to hide the fact that our tax dollars are being spent giving favors to friends.

Add your name to demand that we get the answers from Kasich on these no-bid contracts!

That’s what I’m doing now, and I hope you’ll join me.

Best,

Connie
