The People’s Budget

Our lives. Our community. Our budget. 

A budget that cares for all of us.

The future of Ohio belongs to all of us. As Ohioans, we deserve a state budget that works for us–whether Black, brown, white, native, or newcomer. We must ensure that all Ohioans have the chance to succeed. 

We deserve a state budget that ensures everyone has a fair chance to succeed regardless of race, background, income, or how long they’ve called Ohio home. 

For too long, our leaders have put the wealthy few above hard-working Ohioans, leaving our schools, hospitals, and childcare centers underfunded. A People’s Budget will ensure that Ohio’s resources benefit our communities and support our families. 

It’s time to take care of our communities and create a state budget that leaves no one behind. We are demanding a People’s Budget for 2026-27 that guarantees all of us can thrive.
