Counting kids
Editorials
You haven’t heard that much about children’s issues in this year’s campaigns for statewide offices and Congress in Ohio and Michigan. The flippant explanation is that children don’t vote or make campaign contributions.

Energy mess must be cleaned up
BY DAVID KUSHMA
BLADE EDITOR
Is there anything hopeful to say about the lousy new law that is freezing Ohio’s clean-energy mandates? Only that it could have been even worse — and that Gov. John Kasich and the General Assembly still have a chance to start to reverse the damage they’ve done. …

Community leadership a must for transit
Letters to the Editor
Your July 8 editorial “Looking for a leader” was on target about the lack of leadership in Toledo to improve public transportation.
