Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ohio, We Have a Data Center Problem: A Conversation with Innovation Ohio
Q: What does the 85% capacity rule mean for ratepayers, and why is it a focus of current policy discussions?
The 85% rule requires data centers to pay for at least 85% of the capacity they claim to need, even if they do not fully use it, which would reduce the burden on ordinary residents and help cap rising bills; it's seen as a foundational step toward broader reform.
Ohio, We Have a Data Center Problem: A Conversation with Innovation Ohio
Q: Could you paint a picture of how big the data center boom has gotten in Ohio and why the state is a magnet for this growth?
Ohio has grown to over 200 data centers, drawn by inexpensive land, strong fiber, and tax incentives, but the impact includes higher energy demand, grid upgrades, and the risk of higher bills for everyday Ohioans unless policy changes are made.
Dad, Doctor, Democrat: Zach Rossfeld is Running for Ohio House District 7
Q: How do you plan to address public education and vouchers in Ohio?
Advocate for transparent funding formulas based on actual costs to educate a student, reduce reliance on privatization through vouchers, and reinforce the public nature of education as a core public good.
Dad, Doctor, Democrat: Zach Rossfeld is Running for Ohio House District 7
Q: What specific health-care policy changes would you pursue in the state house?
Leverage medical expertise to shape Medicaid policy, defend against privatization schemes, and ensure that funding remains focused on patient care rather than profit motives, while coordinating with public hospitals and frontline workers.
Dad, Doctor, Democrat: Zach Rossfeld is Running for Ohio House District 7
Q: Which of your identities influenced your decision to run and why run now?
Being a dad, a doctor, and a Democrat shaped a triple focus: family-centered decision making, hands-on healthcare experience informing policy, and progressive values guiding public service. Running now reflects urgency due to Medicaid funding pressures and concerns about education funding.
