If you go to Marion, be sure to stop by the Dem booth and pick up my campaign lit. I want you to interview me on my public bank proposal for Ohio. Craig Swartz, Dem candidate for OH House 87. Thanks.

A public bank is a great idea. Just look at North Dakota (Bank of North Dakota) which has been going for over 100 years and has greatly increased the stability and viability of the small banks and business which use it for loans. All state funds are deposited with the BND and not a for profit bank.

Such an obviously good policy. Should be more central to left/progressive politics. Good for Craig Swartz for platforming it.

Did a great interview with one of the leading public banking advocates in Ohio back in September 2023.
