Micah McCarey

Infrastructure / Transportation I am committed to improving broadband access in District 95, especially in rural areas where lack of internet is a significant barrier. Environment / Energy Clean, safe water is essential for the health and well-being of our communities. That's why I'm committed to pushing for policies that keep our water free from the risks associated with oil and gas activities. Drug Policy My approach to public safety combines the development of robust emergency infrastructure with a commitment to expanding mental health and addiction recovery services. By addressing the opioid epidemic and its underlying causes, we can protect our communities more effectively and support the long-term well-being of Ohioans. Economy I am committed to creating grant programs specifically for Southeast Ohio residents, ensuring our local businesses have access to the funding they need to thrive. Education My specific goal is to close this salary gap within my first term by advocating for increased school funding, ensuring our teachers are not only fairly compensated but also equipped with the resources they need to foster students’ knowledge, skills, and character development.
