Governor of Ohio Major crises are powerfully transformative events. After an extremely challenging time in Ohio brought on by the global coronavirus pandemic, we have an opportunity this year to make the kinds of investments that will bring renewal and recovery across the state.

As part of our budget and other stand-alone bills, we have created the “Investing in Ohio Initiative,” which calls for strategic investments of $1 billion in our economy to: ....
Cal Thomas WASHINGTON When a politician promises to “tell the truth,” as President Biden did in his nationally televised address last Thursday, you can add that statement to familiar ones lacking the ring of sincerity. They include: “The gun isn’t loaded;” “the microphone is off;” “if you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor” and “I did not have sex with that woman, Ms. Lewinsky.” A promise to tell the truth might imply that others (himself?) have been lying in the past.

That was the end of welfare as we knew it. As Clinton boasted in his State of the Union address to Congress in 1996, “The era of big government is over.” Until last Thursday, that is, when Joe Biden signed into law the biggest expansion of government assistance since the 1960s a guaranteed income for most families with children, raising the maximum benefit by up to 80 percent per child. ....
E. GORDON GEE Editor’s note: West Virginia University President E. Gordon Gee sent this letter to the West Virginia Senate last week on proposed concealed carry bills on campus working through the Legislature. Dear Members of the West Virginia Senate, There have been no less than four bills introduced during this legislative session that would limit the authority of our Board of Governors to regulate the presence of firearms on our campuses. Providing a safe learning environment for students is the supreme responsibility of any university. For that reason, West Virginia University opposes these pieces of legislation, which in varying forms would allow individuals licensed to carry concealed weapons to carry them on college and university campuses. ....
