THE STATE OPERATING BUDGET: IMPACT ON WOMEN AND FAMILIES

No matter where we live, what we look like, or what we do for a living, all Ohioans deserve the ability to live economically secure, safe, and healthy lives. When our state policymakers come together to enact policies that invest in women and their families, it strengthens our communities, builds a more equitable future, and creates opportunities for all Ohioans.

The state operating budget is one of the most important pieces of legislation undertaken by the state legislature and the governor. It impacts the quality of life for women, children, and families, and it is a true reflection of our state lawmakers’ priorities for the state.

As the state budget moved through the legislative process, the Women’s Public Policy Network and our coalition partners remained engaged and active in advocating for a budget that supports, prioritizes, and invests in Ohio women and their families.
