Jobs and economic growth

Trumbull County has real economic assets: Ultium Cells and the "Voltage Valley" jobs story in Lordstown. The 910th Airlift Wing at Youngstown Air Reserve Station in Vienna, roughly 2,000 military and civilian jobs. Cafaro and the Eastwood Mall Complex in Niles. Covelli Enterprises and AVI Food Systems, both headquartered right here in Warren.

A commissioner who's run a business understands what it takes to keep employers here and attract new ones: predictable costs, responsive government, and a county that looks like a partner, not an obstacle. That's the conversation I intend to have with every major employer in Trumbull County.
