    Michael Cole, Ohio House Candidate, on School Board Challenges, Education Reform and the Fight for Ohio's Future

    Michael Cole, candidate for Ohio House District 2, joins us to talk about growing up in Cleveland and how an early interest in politics led him to the school board, and now a run for the Statehouse. We get into Education Choice, the lack of buy-in for public education at the state level and why the school district is in the financial place it's in. He breaks down his work on the board, what he'd do differently, and what it looks like to advocate for public education with a Republican-led legislature at odds with it. Plus, the property tax conversation, the resolve he says is needed at the Statehouse, and how he’s thinking about managing Columbus' growth.
