Absolutely. We must require our power plants and manufacturers to apply the most advanced pollution control technologies to their facilities. Current technology exists to greatly reduce environmental damage to our air and water. Not only would this benefit our environment and the health of us all, it would also benefit our economy.

Response to Question:
I have made improving the quality of Ohio’s environment one of my top priorities throughout my career and continued that commitment by successfully passing legislation in 2003 that banned oil and gas drilling in the Great Lakes. I look forward to continuing that commitment by working to fund the Great Lakes LegacyAct – a program that provides $50 million annually for the clean up of contaminated sites throughout the Great Lakes.
