Carl Fischer for Beavercreek Students

The #RepublicanTaxCrisis in Ohio: three decades of state level Republican spending cuts have driven out of control local taxes. The state spending cuts were unnecessary. They were done to pay for income tax cuts for the wealthiest Ohioans. People who didn't need a handout.

The Ohio River Road Runners Club is hosting the 59th annual Xenia Marathon, Half Marathon and 10K today.

Today marks 14 years since 17-year-old, unarmed Trayvon Martin was shot and killed while walking home. 14 years later, we’re still demanding a country where our children can walk home in peace — without being treated like a threat.

Today's @runforsomething.net feel-good update: Leading when it matters most (with some spicy language to keep it fun.) rfsfeelgoodupdates.substack.com/p/rfs-feel-g...

The FBI Director, everyone. You paid for it.

1. DHS surges 3,000 officers to Minneapolis without doing anywhere near enough prep first. 2. Hundreds of habeas cases overwhelm local courts. 3. Dozens of DOJ lawyers quit in disgust/anger. 4. The DOJ brings in JAGs to cover. 5. A JAG was just held in contempt and fined $500/day for ICE's failures.

Wow.

More than 500,000 Haitian refugees living under temporary residency in the U.S. can remain and continue working in the country, a federal judge ruled this evening.

Airlines will not show this to prevent walkouts.

I cannot understand the mentality that any person deserves to die for exercising their first or second amendment rights. It seems like such a shocking betrayal of core American values. Yet polls say 38% of Americans still support the sociopath who ordered the death squads to Minneapolis.

Russia, and China are playing the long game. They amplify anti-education voices in social media and politics. America elected leaders who cut support for higher education and science. Predictably, our schools are falling behind, and it won’t be long before our students do too. Then our nation.

Since Beavercreek has one of the lowest levels of state support for public education in our region, a policy like this might actually reduce local property taxes by combining Beavercreek with districts that receive higher levels of state support.

A motion has been made to add sexual orientation, gender identity, and religion to the list of students whom OSBA will advocate for. #OSBA

The Nancy and David Wolf Holocaust and Humanity Center will offer free admission on Sunday, in observance of the “Night of Broken Glass”, Kristallnacht.

Thanks to everyone who helped make this happen. Levies are a major target right now but lack of state funding means our schools absolutely depend on this revenue. #GoCreek

It’s a beautiful day for canvassing. Thanks to everyone who came out to help!

We just updated our billboard to emphasize the levy. Funding our schools is paramount.

Get out and vote Nov 4 to renew our fixed sum levy. This levy funds 16% of our teachers and administrators. If it fails, we must make cuts. It’s also our last opportunity to maintain the 12.5% state matching funds. Future levy funding is entirely local.

I'm on a panel to discuss vouchers and Ohio's school funding policies this evening. The numbers for Beavercreek are pretty rough. Communities like Beavercreek are stuck funding roughly 80% of our education costs locally.

Adjusted for inflation, the state of Ohio has cut $140 million from the #publicEducation budget over the last two decades. At the same time, they’ve required our schools to do more. The result is a $703 million increase in local #taxes to cover the state shortfall and increased costs.

Local school districts face more cuts from multiple bills proposed by state legislature "It makes no sense for the state to yank property tax revenue from school districts without having a plan in place to keep schools funded" by Jan McLaughlin bgindependentmedia.org/local-school...

Vote yes on the Beavercreek levy and support Carl Fischer for excellent education and fiscal discipline in #BeavercreekOH.

had a great time at the Beavercreek Women’s League candidate forum last night. Thanks to everyone when came out for support.

Changes to property tax law will have far reaching consequences for local municipalities and schools. The only credible way to cut local taxes is either to cut the quality of public education or improve state funding for public education. #PublicSchools www.journal-news.com/local/ohio-p...

Potential Federal Budgets could cut what little money we get from the Feds. Only the Senate Budget preserves education support. www.npr.org/2025/09/26/n...
