Dan Brady - Ohio House of Representatives District 17

Ohio House of Representatives District 17

Former District 17 included all of Lakewood and several west-side Cleveland wards. While serving in the minority of the Ohio House he secured $250,000 for The Beck Center For The Performing Arts.

Dan Brady opposed further reforms to the workers’ compensation insurance system that would have reduced or eliminated benefits to injured workers. Brady opposed the Rebuttable Presumption Bill (House Bill 122) that assumed an injured worker who refused to take a drug and alcohol test up to 36 hours following an accident was at fault and automatically lost his or her benefits.

Dan Brady also supported the Ohio Supreme Court in its upholding of workers’ rights when it ruled against anti-labor legislation. Brady campaigned across Ohio to re-elect Justice Resnick against millions in undisclosed out-of-state corporate money. Brady also led the fight against the legislative immunity amendment slipped into the budget bill (HB 94).
