When I marched with a sign saying "Jobs, Jobs, Jobs" in Franklin's parade on July 3, someone shouted from the crowd, "How you gonna' bring them here?"
Good question. Franklin, like Middletown, has been hit hard by the recession. Many of the manufacturing jobs in the area have gone bust in the last decade, and local men and women who want to work cannot find decent jobs that provide for their families. Sure, we have some McJobs out there: flipping burgers with no benefits, or working at Kings Island for minimum wage. But what Warren County needs are good jobs, and a lot more of them. As your state representative, I will aggressively strive to bring high-paying green jobs to our area.
