Howard Dean, Ohio Democratic leaders to discuss ethics reform

COLUMBUS, Ohio – Former Vermont Governor Howard Dean will join Ohio House and Senate Democrats in launching a national campaign to demonstrate Democrats’ commitment to honest leadership on Wednesday, Jan. 18 at 10 a.m. at the Ohio Statehouse.

The event will coincide with the unveiling of a package of reforms being introduced in Washington by the Democratic leadership in Congress. Democrats across America will stand united on Wednesday in shining a spotlight on the Republican culture of corruption and in highlighting efforts to restore honest leadership at all levels of government.

Dean, who is chairman of the Democratic National Committee, will be joined for a news conference outside Governor Bob Taft’s ceremonial Statehouse office by dozens of legislators and activists, including Ohio House Democratic Leader Chris Redfern, who is also chairman of the Ohio Democratic Party, House Democratic Leader-elect Joyce Beatty of Columbus and Senate Democratic Leader C.J. Prentiss of Cleveland.
