Policy Matters Ohio Information

Policy Matters Ohio is a non-profit policy research organization founded in January 2000 to broaden the debate about economic policy in Ohio. In 2008, the Nation magazine named Policy Matters the most valuable state or regional organization in the country. Our mission is to create a more fair, prosperous, sustainable and inclusive Ohio, through research, media work and policy advocacy. Ohio faces enormous challenges from the global recession, three decades of deindustrialization, rising inequality, and global warming. We also see tremendous opportunity to reinvest in Ohio's workers, children, cities and infrastructure, to forge an economy that works better for all.
