Jon Husted on Crime

 

 


Most important government function: protect people, property

Convincing people that cities and suburbs in Northeast Ohio are safe to live in and a good place to raise a family is simply a matter of ensuring that it is, Husted said, explaining that the most important function of government is protecting people and their property. Vance characterized downtown Akron and other Ohio cities as lawless places during a July 28 visit to Stark County, but his Senate successor steered clear of echoing that pronouncement.
