Work isn't scarce because of artificial intelligence,  we've failed to scale and align our talent pipelines with what our economy actually needs. Right now, our government is investing billions into sectors like clean energy, semiconductors, and advanced manufacturing. Ohio 11 should be first in line not last to benefit.

​

I support making District 11 a pilot zone for federal site reuse incentives, tied to the CHIPS Act, the Inflation Reduction Act, and the Made in America agenda. We can repurpose underutilized industrial spaces into hubs for clean energy assembly, skilled textile production, and other labor-intensive sectors that can not be easily automated or replaced by artificial intelligence.

​

I also support expanding access to trades in public education as career pathways as well as access to federal small manufacturer grants, giving local entrepreneurs and small businesses owners the resources they need to scale and compete in national supply chains.
