Ohio Politics Now: Happening in Washington Today

Rep. Joyce Beatty, D-Jefferson Township, will join members of the the Congressional Black Caucus and the House Democratic Caucus tonight at the Capitol for “Lighting the Way National Speak Out: The Path Forward on Gun Violence.”

According to her office, Beatty organized a bus of area residents to go to Washington for the event, including Ebony Crosby, whose daughter, Italy McCrae, was killed by gun violence last summer as her family sat at the kitchen table.
