This week Carrie and Sky are joined by Nancy Larson who is running for Ohio State Representative for District 47.

About our Guest:

Nancy Larson is running for Ohio State Representative District 47. After spending the last 40 years as a licensed social worker, she retired to pursue her next passion. That mission is to represent her community in Ohio's 47th House District. She has been a lifelong fighter for the dignity and rights of her clients and the community at large. Working with organizations such as the Single Payer Action Network (SPAN), the League of Women Voters (LWV), Advocates for a Clean Lake Erie (ACLE), and the Community Solidarity Response Network (CSRN), she has learned some of what needs to be done in Columbus to improve life for those in her District.

Nancy has worked consistently since she was 17 years old in a variety of jobs and understands the struggles inherent in working for a living and supporting a family. She believes in worker’s rights and in an economic structure that does not allow companies to chew people up and spit them out for excessive profits. She took part in a vote to unionize while working at a CMHC (Community Mental Health Center) and saw firsthand the benefits that come to workers who are unionized. It was a pivotal point in her understanding, and she has been committed to the right to collective bargaining and equal pay for all ever since.
