Families across Northeast Ohio are being crushed by rising prices on groceries, gas, housing, utilities, and healthcare. Inflation isn’t an abstract economic statistic it’s a tax on working people that makes it harder to save, harder to raise a family, and harder to stay in the community you love. Washington’s reckless spending, overregulation, and energy policies have driven up costs and weakened household budgets.
Carey Coleman will take action to lower the cost of living and restore economic stability. He supports reining in out-of-control federal spending, restoring fiscal discipline, and ending wasteful programs that drive inflation. Carey will fight to unleash American energy production to bring down fuel and utility costs, reduce supply chain bottlenecks that raise prices on everyday goods, and protect middle-class families from new taxes and mandates. He believes small businesses and working families deserve relief not more government interference.
Emilia Sykes has consistently supported the policies that fueled inflation and higher costs. Rather than challenging Washington’s spending addiction and regulatory overreach, she has voted in line with leadership that expanded government, increased borrowing, and weakened domestic energy production. Families pay the price while politicians avoid accountability.
Carey believes affordability is about restoring common sense: living within our means, empowering workers and entrepreneurs, and putting American families ahead of political agendas.
Safe communities are the foundation of a strong economy, strong families, and a free society. Northeast Ohio families deserve neighborhoods where children can play safely, businesses can operate without fear, and law enforcement officers are supported not undermined. Unfortunately, rising crime, soft-on-crime policies, and underfunded public safety infrastructure have left too many communities vulnerable.
Carey Coleman will take action to support law enforcement and strengthen public safety. He will advocate for increased resources for local police, stronger penalties for violent and repeat offenders, and federal partnerships that help local departments recruit, train, and retain quality officers. Carey supports cracking down on fentanyl trafficking and organized crime, securing the border to stop the flow of illegal drugs, and ensuring prosecutors have the tools needed to keep dangerous criminals off the streets.
Carey also believes in protecting victims’ rights, supporting first responders, and investing in mental health and addiction recovery programs that actually reduce recidivism and improve public safety outcomes.
Emilia Sykes has aligned herself with policies that weaken law enforcement and fail to address crime effectively. Instead of prioritizing public safety reforms that deliver real results, she has supported political approaches that excuse criminal behavior, undercut police morale, and fail to deter violent offenders.
Carey’s message is simple: criminals should fear the law not law-abiding citizens.
The Constitution is not a suggestion it is the foundation of American liberty. Free speech, religious liberty, the right to self-defense, due process, and limits on government power are essential to preserving a free and prosperous nation. Today, these freedoms are increasingly threatened by bureaucratic overreach, politicized enforcement, and an expanding federal government that believes it knows better than the people.
Carey Coleman will take action to defend constitutional rights without compromise. He will oppose federal mandates that infringe on personal liberty, defend the First and Second Amendments, protect religious freedom, and work to rein in unelected agencies that make rules without accountability. Carey believes power belongs with the people, the states, and local communities not distant federal bureaucracies.
Carey also supports restoring transparency and accountability in government, strengthening oversight authority in Congress, and ensuring laws are applied equally and fairly.
Emilia Sykes has consistently supported centralized federal power and expansive government authority. Her voting record reflects a willingness to empower Washington regulators at the expense of individual liberty, state sovereignty, and constitutional restraint.
Carey believes defending the Constitution is not partisan it is patriotic.
Northeast Ohio’s future depends on strong private-sector growth, skilled workers, modern manufacturing, and policies that reward investment and innovation. Washington should be helping American workers compete and win not exporting jobs, overregulating employers, or subsidizing foreign competitors.
Carey Coleman will take action to grow jobs and strengthen the regional economy. He supports pro-growth tax policies, regulatory reform that lowers barriers for small businesses, workforce training tied directly to local employer needs, and reshoring critical manufacturing and supply chains. Carey believes Ohio should be a national leader in advanced manufacturing, logistics, energy production, and skilled trades.
He will fight for fair trade policies that protect American workers, expand apprenticeship programs, and create pathways for young people to build stable, high-wage careers without crushing student debt.
Emilia Sykes has supported economic policies that favor federal spending programs and centralized planning over private-sector growth. These approaches often benefit special interests while leaving local employers buried under compliance costs and uncertainty.
Carey’s focus is simple: more jobs, higher wages, stronger local businesses, and real opportunity for the next generation.
Reliable infrastructure is essential for economic growth, public safety, and quality of life. Roads, bridges, water systems, broadband access, and energy infrastructure must work efficiently to keep communities connected and competitive. Too often, federal infrastructure spending is wasted on bureaucracy, political pet projects, and delays instead of delivering real improvements on the ground.
Carey Coleman will take action to prioritize smart, accountable infrastructure investment. He supports streamlining federal permitting to accelerate construction timelines, ensuring taxpayer dollars go directly to projects not administrative overhead and prioritizing repairs and modernization of existing infrastructure before expanding bureaucracy. Carey believes infrastructure investments should strengthen local economies, improve safety, and support long-term growth.
Carey will advocate for public-private partnerships, transparent project oversight, and performance-based funding to ensure taxpayers see real results from every dollar spent.
Emilia Sykes has supported massive federal spending packages that lack accountability and deliver slow, uneven results. Communities continue waiting for improvements while costs rise and projects stall.
Carey believes infrastructure should serve the people not politics.
