Capri Cafaro will lead Senate minority in January

You people need to get over the past and move on. I have met Ms. Cafaro one time at a town hall meeting she had over the serious septic problem we have in Trumbull County. She took on the Ohio Department of health to help us and I was so impressed by her I began to follow her closely....

She started out as chairperson of the Transportation committe and did such a good job that the National Conference on State Legislatures made her there National Vice Chair regarding Highway Funding issues. Once the leadership in Columbus saw her ability they made her Chair of the Finance committee. As chair of that committee she secured $500,000 for the Warren Business Incubator, $100,000 for the City of Niles Recreation Center, $50,000 for the Veterans Memorial in Warren and $50,000 for Someplace Safe Womens Shelter. She also got Ashtbula County there first appropriation ever out of the Capitol budget ever when she secured a couple hundred thousand dollars for Glenbeigh Hospital.

You people should judge her by her performance in office and not on things that she has no control over. If any of you had a conversation with her on the issues I gurantee you would change your oppinion.

Everyone should be proud that are valley is represented in a top position in this state.So sit on here and complain that she dosent deserve this all you want, but im proud to have Capri as my Senator and the people of Ohio are going to be proud of what she will accomplish in this new roll.

I wish her the best.
